What DID Apple innovate? (lemmy.world)

Genuine question.

I know they were the scrappy startup doing different cool things. But, what are the most major innovative things that they introduced, improved or just implemented that either revolutionized, improved or spurred change?

I am aware of the possibility of both fanboys and haters just duking it out below. But there's always that one guy who has a fkn well-formatted paragraph of gold. I await that guy.

Agreed on the GUI.

NT 3.1 at least had modern underpinnings, and using the Norton Desktop on it instead of the Windows Shell made it much like what we got with "Chicago" - the 95/Win2k UI.

Wow, you got me thinking about that stuff and remembering Norton Desktop. I'd forgotten ever using it on NT back then. Gonna have to go look for a copy now.
