In the original drafts I had a long section on this, including some of the history of the GUI, the development of the mouse, etc. It was way too much for the main text when the point is just to set up a metaphor for students who have seen a Mac 128.
That said, we can and should do better in the instructor guide. Thanks for the reminder. I'll add some context there.
