The legend I’ve heard is that the Xerox company built the first PC, complete with mouse, monitor, printer, and keyboard, but couldn’t figure out how to market it. They let anyone come and see it, and kids like Jobs and Gates stole it for themselves. Maybe in the future, ‘xerox’ will mean 'didn’t know a good thing when you had it." She dated that guy and dumped him right before he won the lottery. What a xerox!
