Is that official?  ParcPlace was founded by a lot of ex-Parc people,
and they were running window managers across networks in the late 70's
when machines that could run lisp at a decent speed were too big]
to put on people's desks  (or so I'm told....).

After all, even NeWS was a sort-of Andrew v 2, if you read James
Gosling's early papers about the tow of them:-)
