"this case is 10x better than Apple suing MS on the windows"
You mean 'not having a close button widget on the virtual keyboard' is 10 times more innovative than: scroll bars (Alto didn't have those), the menu bar up top (Alto had it at the bottom of the window), icons as nouns (Alto had only action-toolbar icons. Using icons to represent files was Mac-first), drag-select (To select text in the Alto, you clicked the left button for the start, and the right button for the end of the selection), overlapping windows (You couldn't put one window on top of another on an Alto), use of fonts onscreen, etc, etc, etc?
Wow. Who knew?
The key decision that lost Apple's lawsuit was that Sculley signed an agreement allowing MS to copy mac-like aspects necessary for MS Office for DOS. Not prior art.
