apple copies windows

We all know how much Microsoft copies from Apple. But did you know that Apple copies just as much from Microsoft? The following is a list of some features that appeared on Windows first.

1. Multiple User Log-ins and fast user switching
2. Internet browser-style file browsing with forward/back buttons
3. Window minimizing
4. Keyboard Shortcut to Application quitting (Ctrl+Alt+Del vs. Apple+Option+Esc)
5. Right mouse click
6. Running applications shown at the bottom of the screen
7. “Desktop” folder in a “home” directory to reflect files placed on the desktop

The more Microsoft and Apple copy from each other, the better it is for consumers.
