Yes, true. An OS I still miss, for all its instability and quirkiness.
I'd love to see a modern FOSS recreation, at least of the concept and
the style, even if it was binary-incompatible.
What do you feel is still missing from OS-X today? About the only thing I
can think of is the unique file system, where each file had a data and a
resource fork.
The spatial Finder.
I can?t agree enough. For what it?s worth, in recent versions of the Mac OS if you have
the toolbar turned off in Finder it mostly functions in a spatial way, but there are
glitches that wreck your folder layouts and positioning from time to time.
