That's pretty cool. It's rather amazing how far computer interfaces have come in the mere 18 years since the release of Windows 3.1
Then again, it also demonstrates the clear superiority in GUI that the Mac OS had back in 1992 with system 7.0. Too bad it took them until 1997 to come up with the next arguably significant upgrade (System 8). Resting on laurels, much?

It's easier than trying to stop and talk to the people on the street? I also don't have to support my verbal abuse with physical prowess.
