Steve Capps was the only person on the original Mac team who worked at PARC.
They were influenced strongly by the UI and graphics work of Lisa.

There were several ex-Xerox (PARC and SDD) people on Lisa, Frank Ludolph, for
example, who was an author of the Lisa UI paper I pointed to yesterday.

Jean-Louis Gassée was the person who was the manager of engineering when Nubus
was added to the Mac. He had "Open Mac" as his license plate at the time.
