Ola! Dan,
Along the same lines,, Xerox Park had the mouse, graphical user interface (GUI), and a early internet system and so many other essential inventions to the computer industry. Essentially all the other companies took their ideas and made huge companies out of Xerox inventions. Shouldn’t they have absolutely owned the computer industry from top to bottom?
I look forward to your next post

You could try it out! It was pretty amazing how we still use a lot of its innovations (3-button mouse, arrow mouse pointer)
