Why did it take Apple to be the one? The tech isn't all that new, and we've been dealing with the mouse and keyboard as the primary interface for a long time, why the holdup in new user interfaces?

I have a big issue whenever the needed tech seems to either to far ahead or to far behind to make a story realistic.
