I think lessons can be learned from workstation operating systems that people generally liked including windows 2000 (yeah windows 2000), Golden era of Mac OS, and some features of linux desktop, along with decent unix principles. Microsoft is abusing their os dominance with rent seeking and neglect. Apple's hardware is too expensive to be justifable for most people. Heck, if there could be a decent workstation that just fits on a vesa mount, that just happens to run windows software easily, and doesn't forsake good design decisions every iteration, I think it could be a hit. That would be great progress sadly. I like Mac OS for sticking with design decisions for a lot longer than windows did. But in iOS there are a lot of examples of tutorials breaking because they move preference panes around for no real reason. Please, OS designers, don't do that! Maybe add some innovation in there like multiple clipboard buffers or something. |
