Converting Intellectual Assets into Property
Thomas G. Field Jr, Franklin Pierce Law Center
ABSTRACT: The mouse and graphic interface were first commercialized on Macintosh computers. Yet, Steve Jobs is said to have derived both from the Alto computer developed by Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center. While Jobs became a billionaire, "Xerox completely failed to get into the personal computer business, missing one of the biggest business opportunities in history."
