	History of the graphical user interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is considerably different from the command line interface in which the user types a series of text commands to the computer.
		Windows 1.0 was a GUI (graphic user interface) for the MS-DOS operating system that had been the OS of choice for IBM PC and compatible computers since 1981.
		Some interface features of Mac OS X are inherited from NeXTStep (such as the Dock, the automatic wait cursor, or double-buffered windows giving a solid appearance and flicker-free window redraws), while others are inherited from the old Mac OS operating system (the single system-wide menu-bar).

	Microsoft Agent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since the computer system (unlike Lumiere in the movie) had no way of telling when a user was concentrated (and should not be interrupted at any cost) and when it was the right time for a helpful hint, the interventions often came at the wrong time in a chronically annoying way.
		Users could easily add characters to the ones that Microsoft shipped with software by putting additional Agent files in the proper directory, but they could not modify the existing ones in shape or in behavior.
		Additionally, users of Windows XP and above or owners of Microsoft Office 2000 and up are the only ones who have Agent software pre-loaded on their computers; others have to download the software and install it manually.

		Aero may make a cameo appearance in Microsoft Chairman and Chief Software Architect Bill Gates' opening keynote, but is not finished yet and likely won't be included in the pre-beta release of Longhorn that will be handed out to PDC attendees, according to sources familiar with Microsoft's PDC plans.
		Also, Aero is not on the calendar of sessions at the show.
		Perhaps more important to developers is that Microsoft will give PDC attendees the scoop on Avalon, the little talked about engine underlying the Longhorn user interface.
