      My eyes!!!:wtf: I never saw the Mac GUI before, having learned my lesson with the Apple IIC. But all of the Windows versions I've seen on my home PC, and until Win95 I couldn't uninstall them fast enough. Horrid things... Will Build Nuclear Missile For Food - No Target Too Small

            Ah GEOS, Who else had one of the Gorilla Banana printers with it on a Commadore 64? Not really a bad printer but who ever named it should have been shot.

              Their site doesn't work. I was looking through all the screenshots from Mac OS 1.x to 9.x and they all looked the same!

                Ooo! Me! I did! That c=64 was an awesome machine. I learned 6502 on it, sprites, split screen graphics... I built my first text editor on that thing at $C000 if i recall. 2K for a halfway decent text editor! load"*",8,1 - it's still in my finger memory :) Wish i'd saved it for my son...:( ...Steve

                      But technically, that's only from 4.0 to 5.1, not 1.0 to 9.0 like Mac OS! ;P

                          Actually, Apple focuses on new technology way more than the PC world. The difference between System 1.0 and Windows 1.0 was that System 1.0 was actually a usable operating system for average users. Thus, it needed a lot less improvements GUI-wise than Windows.

                            I owned both a C64 and an SX64, but do not remember a Gorilla Banana printer.

                              Hey Joe, Cool site. I have always thought that I had fond memories of the Windows v2 GUI... but :omg: not any more! In fact, what I do have fond memories of is the old Windows v2 two tone bleep you got when clicking outside of a modal dialog... Laters, Jon

                                Great link, Joe. Thanks! By the way, I programmed in OS/2 for about 8 years back in the mid-80's till the early 90's. If you were doing just gui development, then OS/2 was a major pain as it had no real development tools. However, EE was far superior to Windows at that time in terms of multi-tasking, multi-threading, database programming and communications programming. Cheers, Tom Archer "Use what talents you possess.
