3D Sphere Interface for XP

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the not-often-you-envy-windows dept.

Brian Brian writes "I found this super cool 3D, inside a sphere, desktop interface. The videos really demonstrate it. I would love this built into OS X but it is just for Windows right now. And if nothing else, the paradigm is the coolest way to handle multiple screens." Here are a collection of screenshots & videos. I'm skeptical that it wouldn't be very practical, but it sure looks fun.

    Before someone comes forth with a, "It must be hosted on an XP!" har har joke, can anyone supply a link to a mirror? Why oh why are slower links not mirrored??? Pay attention, Slashdot owners: this is ridiculous!

      Guy, Thanks for the tip. I did not think to look there, but I appreciate the nudge in the right direction. See, if I hadn't posted it on Slashdot, I wouldn't have known. :)

    So you don't disagree with the rest of my post - that Microsoft products slow people down because they break standards?

    Now, what WOULD be news would be if Microsoft were to fix their browser (which they claim is such a core component of their system - which, if it is, shows they don't know what the fuck they're doing or are on drugs, or if it isn't, that they're just the bunch of lying sacks of shit we've all come to know and loathe) so we can stop all this stupidity of browser sniffing. Oh, and get rid of browser-embedded activex controls.

    Feel free to read the Slashdot FAQ so you understand why this is not done. It is related to this pesky copyright thing.

    Could a better system be used? Surely. It's not an entirely trivial question though. And considering that not even dupes are checked for I believe this is quite far in the future.
