Which platform has had the lion's share of the desktop market for 20
years?  How many in this current generation of young computer users
have ever used MS-DOS, ever needed to create a custom boot floppy to
get just one game to run right, or ever used a computer "without" a
GUI interface more then just ONCE in their current lifetime?

Xerox created the GUI, technically.  Apple was the first to
commercially implemented it, and Micro$oft copied it ... and apparent
keep on copying it.
