Reading over the patent I noticed something missing. There is no mention to Microsoft windows. Some of the Interfaces and networks mentioned are UNIX, OS/2, VMS, DOS, Desqview/X, MacOS, and X windows, plus a general references to "window manager" but MS windows is not. I wonder why? =) Considering it was filled Aug 1997.
