Description

The Xerox 8010 Information System, also known as the Xerox Star, was introduced by Xerox Corporation in 1981. It was the first commercial personal computer to incorporate technologies that have since become standard in personal computers, including a bitmapped display, a window-based graphical user interface, icons, folders, a mouse (with two buttons), Ethernet networking, file servers, print servers, and email1. Quite an innovative system for its time!
