Um.. bone up on your history there chief.

Xerox was the company who developed the GUI, and the mouse. Not Apple. Xerox gave Apple, and Microsoft their 'crown jewel' back in the day. Apple managed to get it to the market in their computers before MS did in NEC's.

However, Jobs still is a monumental figure in what we have today. No question.
