Think Xerox. Think Apple stole the "look & feel".
A bit before my time, but Apple was the first to make a commercially successful product. We're talking about which products had the reach to users. Apple were the ones who achieved this.

When Commodore showed the Commodore PET to Tandy (Commodore was looking for a distribution channel) it inspired Tandy to build and market their own line of computers.
