GUI

Dictionary of Computer & Internet TermsDictionary of Computer and Internet Terms
Stands for "Graphical User Interface." The acronym is pronounced "gooey", not "gwi" or "gwee". It allows computer users to interact with their system by using a mouse instead of by typing in text at a command line. The two most popular operating systems -- Windows and the Mac OS -- are GUI based. The idea of a graphical user interface was first introduced by Apple with the Macintosh in 1984, but the idea was actually stolen from Xerox by our pal, Steve Jobs.
