Interesting how basically the same thing happened to Apple in the 90s: the original, more radical successor to System 7 was in development for years under the name Copland, before they ended up scrapping most of it and releasing the much more conservative MacOS 8. Although I guess the only real takeaway might be that OS development is hard.
- mixmastamyk 5y agoProject management is probably harder, classic OS design was well understood by that time.
- andrew_ 5y agoI had a WindowBlinds theme that mimicked the Copland look back in the day.
- zerocrates 5y agoWhat did Copland look like? Some quick googling seems to show me something that looks basically like how I remember Mac OS 8.
