Comment Apple's Project X / Hotsauce (Score 1) 92
The chain of idea theft in this space is long... Xerox /probably/ stole this from Apple, who /definatly/ stole the idea from the work of a couple of MIT Media Lab Researchers, Lisa Strausfeld and some other guy. They went on to form a company called Perspecta www.perspecta.com which has strayed far from the visualization fold since it was founded (they now do this OLAP for the web thing).
