It’s fascinating to read these in-depth retrospectives from the people who were actually involved.
Interesting that Windows was in development before the Macintosh. To be fair, lots of 8-bit systems had experimental GUIs at the time as well.
Microsoft was one of the first companies Apple showed the Macintosh to well before release so that they would have BASIC and office software ready
Sure, and both were exposed to PARC and early 80s experiments in GUIs. There was a certain amount of convergence. But it is interesting that Windows was in motion first.
