Yes, it's geeky but you may find this an interesting read. It covers all the major steps in graphical user interface design over the last 28 years of computing:

It even includes a brief mention of the PARC computer developed by Xerox. Just take a look at the screenshot, and you'll see it doesn't look much different to a DOS file manager from the 90's.

This is from 1973!
