No one said that Apple invented USB. But the fact is that USB support didn't arrive for Windows until '96 with Windows '95 release 2. Even then PC users were using hacks like interfacing with Zip drives with parallel ports.

Even after Windows '98 came out, I still couldn't find USB CD writers. Do you think it was coincidence that most of the PC USB peripherals were the same colors as iMacs?
