    The complete book list.



    Go here to get the complete book list that the creator of C++ has
    compiled, along with his book "The C++ Programming Language, Third
    Edition". Bjarne Stroustrup is the creator of C++.

    Thank you. THANK YOU!! If you hadn't told us, we'd still be lost,
    wandering in the dark, bumping into each other...

          BIG difference between 'invention' and 'theft' (remember what he paid Xerox
          for windows? That's 'theft' in my book. <G>).

            I thought it was charity. Whatever Xerox got out of it, they must
            have liked [then], right?

              Theft? By Gates or by Xerox?

                As I recall, it was Apple that was accused of stealing PARC's design,
                not Microsoft.

                  I think the point here is: who cares? Window-based interface was
                  invented by bureaucrats first. Icons - by Egyptians. Probably. :-)

                    Xerox got screwed.

                    Sort of like:
                    You run a cabinet business. Someone in your company designed a birdhouse.
                    You don't really care about the birdhouse, so you sell it to Bill for $2.00.
                    He slaps a coat of paint on the birdhouse, walks across the street and sells
                    it for $100,000.00!
                    Sure, it's all legal. But if you knew the guy across the street was looking
                    for a birdhouse, would you have sold it to Bill for $2.00?
                    (the guy across the street was 'Big Blue', more or less. <G>)

                      Bill didn't steal it from PARC. Apple "stole" it (at least that's what
                      the Xerox lawsuit claimed).
