But that's MS aping Apple.

The win95 interfaces was basically the multifinder (system 5, 1987) with a
pair of $30 shareware extensions (be hierarchic and I forget the other one)
with the apple menu dropped to the booth of the screen and renamed start.

And so forth.

The funniest, though, is the MS store in the mall, that came out shortly
after Apple revamped--and looks suspiciously like apple store 1.0 . . .

(OK, in fairness, Win 3 may have owed more to motif/X than apple,
particularly the key commands)
