โฆ Synopsis
Imagine a time before everyone stared at a screen, before fonts, icons, mice, and laser printers, before Apple and Microsoft? But in El Segundo and Palo Alto, Xerox engineers were dreaming and secretly building the modern personal computer. Who were they? Why did corporate management just want to sell copiers and printers?The author, Albert Cory,* was one. Inventing the Future is based on the true story of the Xerox Star, the computer that changed everything
