Line 3: The graphical user interface was invented at [[Xerox PARC]] and most modern GUIs are derived from it. For this reason, some people call this class of interface a PARC User Interface (PUI). The PUI consists of [[widget]]s such as windows, menus, buttons, radio boxes, and icons, and employs a pointing device (such as mouse, trackball, or touchscreen) in addition to a keyboard. For this reason, many people refer to PUIs as WIMPs (Windows, Icons, Mouse, Pointer). Examples of systems that support PUIs are ~~[[CDE]],~~ [[Mac OS]], [[Microsoft Windows]], and the [[X Window System]]. The latter is extended with toolkits such as [[KDE]] and [[GNOME]].
