We'd be exactly where we are now. Apple pioneered the GUI. Then Bill and Steve were friends. That's why Windows has close buttons on the left of the toolbar, the start bar at the bottom. The only thing different would be no MS Word, Powerpoint, or Excel. Or WMP, which is easily replaced by Quicktime. Oh and there'd be no MSN Messenger, everyone would have .Mac messenger (it's like using MSN only in iChat). There wouldn't be any huge differences, look deep into the history, what technology, not program, but technology did MS invent? Apple with Steve Jobs and a group of guys from New York invented the Mouse, and the GUI. W/O Apple, MS would be nowhere ^_^
