There's no controversy about who invented the mouse. It was Doug Englebart, in the early 60's. I saw one on his desk in 1968. PARC was founded in 1970.
There's also no controversy about PARC inventing the inkjet printer; they didn't. It may have been Canon, it may have been HP, but it was not PARC. You may have been thinking of the laser printer, but they didn't invent that either. There were prototypes running at the Xerox lab in NY before PARC was founded.
PC? Nope.
Ethernet? Yes, definitely.
You packed a stunning amount of misinformation into a short introduction.
