What are features that were originally Microsoft's own on PC's?

Me and my friend are having a debate on Microsoft and Apple and I love Microsoft and he loves Apple. He says Microsoft is just a big copy cat with everything and I insist that they are NOT. So I want to proove him wrong and give him things that Microsoft has thought of themselves. Can anyone help me out. Like Microsofts own desktop appearances and features.

-Thank You

Probably the Right-Click.

And if you really want to hack him off, let him know that Microsoft made their own UNIX back in the 1980's. It was called XENIX.

Everything else Microsoft has "innovated" in the in the last 2 decades has only been a copy of features in other operating systems. Windows GUI is a copy of Mac OS, Apple GS/OS, Apple LISA, and Amiga's GUI (each of those 4 introduced features that are commonly in use today). Every GUI mentioned is a copy of Xerox PARC's GUI, since Xerox got so many ideas right the first time around...it's just too bad their company executives had no ideas what kind of gold mine they were sitting on.

Also, Apple beat everyone to the 32-bit bus punch with a technology called NuBus, developed by MIT. Except for overall data transfer speed, Mac OS and NuBus had, in the late 80's, what wasn't available in WIndows until Windows 95 came out - true plug and play configuration.
