Basically, it's chock full of screenshots of all possible parts of OS's, old and new. You can browse by Operating Systems or by components such as the desktop. What's really smart is this grid of icons visually comparing all the various icons for all OSs in one go. You can really see design history unfolding before your eye, showing who copied/influenced who. Wonder at Windows 1.0, look at Longhorn, study Solaris, ponder OS/2, mourn BeOS, contemplate NeXTSTEP and admire Amiga OS. So, take a trip down memory lane and check out the OS's you haven't seen yet and a few you knew too well. You know it makes sense! :Fade-color The site is recommended and well worth a visit. Only thing is, they really do need to get some PDA GUIs in there. :wink: __________________ Professional photographer in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire specialising in Wedding photography, Events & Portraits
