This company could have easily paid off the office to change the date to 2005. A patent in the states only buys you a couple months before China violates it.

When Apple released the Apple Mac - it used the almost identical GUI interface. And Yes - Parc Xerox actually invented the MOUSE interface way back in 1969 - and just did not know what to do with it. [ Geoworks was also available on the C64 and eventually the PC, but by that time microsoft had their "windows" desktop os , and tried to sue Geoworks for stealing "their" gui technology ( !?!? ) Geoworks on the PC was a much better GUI interface - which even on DOS could fully multi-task, unlike even the latest windows, that only time share the processing between the apps ] ...
