Actually, didn't the mouse, windows and WYSIWYG all come out of Xerox's
Palo Alto Research Lab? Yes, as a matter of fact, I think they did. 

Oh, yes, and PostScript was developed by Adobe.

Now, I don't remember exactly who invented and developed the Laser
printer, but it wasn't Apple. They just marketed the thing.

What Apple did was to bring these ideas together on one platform. And
take credit for them all, of course.
