windows existed as a term when parc created the first gui interface
facebook existed as a term when MZ did his first hot or not application and the movie documents it, in his own words (from his blog).

********** I went to the same high school as MZ- Exeter Academy (Mark wears the shirt in one scene). We had a little booklet called- "Facebook" which had everyone's photo and bio in it, segmented by class year.
Of course back then it was printed, which belies my age.
Not sure if it predates the Harvard version or not, but it could definitely be seen as prior art
