Have YOU ever invented anything

>>56060664
they invented the gui and the smartphone.
as much as I hate apple, there's no denying the facts.
you can stay delusional if you want, as long as it keeps you from giving apple a single dime

>>56060724
>gui
Xerox did that before Apple.
>smartphone
Symbian exists.

>>56060724
> They invented the gui and the smartphone

No, Douglas Engelbart invented the GUI, Xerox parc developed a gui that, on the surface, is akin to the guis we're used to today. Then, one day Steve Jobs decided to visit Xerox parc, took their ideas, and commercialized a watered-down version of Parc's gui ideals.

Don't know about the smartphone tho

ADB
ADC
Global menu bar

>>56060664
I can't think of anything.
But one can't deny that they sort of "re"invented a lot of stuff.

Portable MP3 players weren't a really big hit before iPods.
Smartphones with touchscreens weren't popular before the iPhone.
All-in-ones hardly existed before the iMac.

>d commercialized a watered-down version of Parc's gui ideals.
Sounds more like a pointless jab than any sort of fact.

>>56061297
Hes actually correct , apple didn't invented a gui on a smartphone , hell they didn't even created the first smart phone. A chink company did that in the 90s and then,they took there idea.

>>56061286
Pretty much this. I can't think of anything Apple produced that wasn't just unveiled in a much more obscured product that failed to capture the public's attention. Apple's only real feat is marketing.

Apple yes, Steve Jobs no.

>>56061555
Are you claiming Apple was even close to having the first smartphone? There were at least dozens of smartphones before the iPhone came out.

>>56061639
When the iPhone came out it didn't even allow third party applications. Steve Jobs said web apps were enough.

>>56061639
>used a Nokia running Symbian for ages
>finally get a smartphone
>pretty much no difference apart from now I have to use a shitty touch screen instead of actual buttons

Not gonna lie, the jump was really underwhelming.

>>56061639
Please reread, i said they DIDN'T created the first smartphone

>>56060664
iphone, ipad, imac

list goes on

>>56060664
Butthurt.

>>56061665
How is that the slightest bit relevant?

>>56061695
No shit, but you were acting like they had one of the first

>>56061743
How was i acting? I said mid 90s, iphone didn't comeout till 2007

>>56061743
>smartphone
>no apps
Also, just to trigger you. Reminder that SJ was a retarded wanker.

>>56061555
Stop talking to me, retard.

Is any of the Open Source software original?

Have anybody invented anything??

>>56060724
Who is palm.

>>56060664
Is Apple supposed to be some sort of invention company or something? They are a manufacturer of consumer electronics. Why do they need to "invent" things?

They invented multi monitor desktop.

Like all apple fags do when they can't make a proper apple shill thread without a pointless jab in every post to every other company.

Many little things. Features. Mechanisms. Production processes.

Apple II may not have been the first complete computer on the market, but it was among the first, and offered a compelling value proposition because of Woz's inventiveness in designing it for affordable production.

Likewise, the Mac was the first really complete, ready-for-prime-time GUI. Many gaps had to be filled in the earlier efforts, and ways found to make the capabilities fit in an affordable machine.

Apple hasn't invented a damned thing.
