Sir:
Since Apple introduced the computer Macintosh there has
been very little progress in the field of graphical user
interfaces (GUI) for computers.
The reason is that Apple has sued or threatened to sue
every innovative small business which produces a better GUI
than that of Apple's Macintosh.
Would you please ask Apple to stop so we may get on with
development and business?
I have the honor to remain,
Most respectfully yours,
