MISC. After Steve Jobs learned about Windows (which used a mouse & a GUI), he accused Bill Gates of stealing Apple's idea. Gates replied "Well Steve...I think it's more like we both had this rich neighbor named Xerox & I broke into his house to steal the TV set & found out that you had already stolen it."

Which is like calling a Chiropractor a doctor. They went to a school, and they got a degree from that school, but that doesn't mean it was a medical school, nor are they licensed as an actual doctor to perform actual medicine.
