Its very nice, certainly better than any winXP desktop I've seen... but there's one thing.. why are we still thinking in only 2 dimensions?
The future of the Workbench desktop should be in 3d GUI design. For example, windows could "fold" instead of minimise, icons could be 3d rendered, animated etc. The mouse could act as a lightsource, casting shadows on the other icons, desktop items and windows.
Applications could rotate into view, rather than slide like workbench screens.
And why are we still using mice? We shoudl be using next generation pointing devices, gestures etc to make computing more intuitive and powerful...
Lets see if we can come up with some groundbreaking GUI designs, instead of going over old ground.
Well done anyway mate, like it a lot!
Cheers,
