I like what SimoAmi has done. He has put a lot of effort into it, which is good. We need people like that!


Agreed :-D

Looking at SimoAmis' work, the first thing that strikes me, is the similarity to Linux/Unix. I guess that's because the new Amiga OS is based on a Linux kernel?


No, no, no :-o  ;-)  It's based on the original AmigaOS, greatly enhanced.  Which is why the actual scheme has similar gadgets/colours.

How can we make it different, but still similar?


That's something that really excites me - the Workbench is going to get a complete overhaul soon (not just the look).  What I want is something unique, but very usable.  I personally don't want to end up with something like KDE, which is really good, but at the end of the day a copy of windows.

BTW that win95 link is interesting.

And welcome to A.org :-D
