A History of the GUI

Auf ars technica ist ein interessanter Artikel zur Geschichte der grafischen Oberflächen erschienen. Das folgende Zitat fand ich sehr anregend (Hervorhebung von mir):

Douglas Englebart completed his degree in electrical engineering in 1948 and settled down in a nice job at the NACA Institute (the forerunner of NASA). However, one day while driving to work he had an epiphany: he realized that his real calling as an engineer was not to work on small projects that might only benefit a few people. Instead, he wanted to work on something that would benefit all of humanity.
