The Graphical User Interface Timeline shows a comprehensive historical gallery of GUIs based on the Windows, Icons, Menus, Pointing Device (WIMP) method. The gallery begins with the Xerox Alto, which was the first system to pull together all of the elements of the modern GUI, including a 3-button mouse, bit-mapped display, graphical windows, and an Ethernet network. It then reviews how the WIMP GUI evolved over the years, with detailed screenshots and summaries of the functional enhancements. In addition to showing the historical variations of Windows, MacOS, and OS/2, the timeline also touches on a variety of alternative WIMP GUIs that came and went over the years, including GS/OS for the Apple IIGS, Workbench for the Amiga, GEOS for the PC, and many others.
