It's not only about anti-aliasing. RGBA icons enable partial/full transparency of the image.

As an example: the MOS icon has a shadow, while the busy pointer has a white glow. Both is a simple RGBA image.

With RGBA icons the GlowIcons may have REAL glow :-)

(max 256 color ?)


Just as MOS replaced this system one day OS4.X will replace it too. Having a 256 color pen system in 2003 ain't that cool.
