Apple came out before the things we call P.C.'s today. Apple invented the Macintosh comp. and called it a power p.c. because p.c. just meant personel computer. Bill Gates and other computer guys made similar products, so Apple sued them and won, and obviously still let them make and sell their own computers, too. In the end Apples were just called mac's and other computers were called p.c.'s. Today 90% or more of the world use P.C.'s.

The first Macintosh computer appeared in 1984 and the first version of the Windows operating system appeared in 1985. Microsoft licensed certain parts of the Macintosh system from Apple for inclusion within their Windows system. The Windows operating system was not very successful at first and did not really take off until version 3 in 1992.
