Taking the known concept of three-dimensional desktops to its own level. It offers a new way to organize objects on the desktop such a icons and applications.

    Amazing that you've picked my two least favorite UIs in existence... I'd rather use twm than XP, and Apple's weird "the program you're using is not in the window" idea is just horribly unlikeable. What do people do, just learn all the keyboard shortcuts and ignore the top bar? I guess even geeks can get used to it, but it seems terribly unpleasant to me.

    Anyway, I agree about 3d interfaces, silly waste of everyone's time.
