Best Answer

Apple Computer developed first desktop computer with a GUI, graphical user interface and they were called "Windows", but to give credit where credit is due: The first graphical user interface was developed at the Xerox PARC (Palo Alto Research Center) in the 1970s for the Xerox Alto computer and they were also called "Windows". Steve Jobs visited PARC when the interface was under development and you know the rest of the story…it was incorporated into the Lisa's software platform which eventually led to the Macintosh.

The standard windowing system in the Unix world is the X Window System, first released in the mid-1980s. So "Windows" were pop-up screens called "Windows" in the computer world for those who are old as dirt.

History has away of white washing the truth sometimes.

Some people actually believe Bill Gates invented the Desktop computer.
