- dhosek 5y agoYes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taligent https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taligent The whole convoluted story of Taligent and WorkplaceOS is something to behold. It's a pity because the initial promise back in the early 90s was something I was genuinely excited about but alas, it was all promise and no shipping
- mcguire 5y agoQuick anecdote: One of IBM's guys got back from Cupertino (Taligent was across the street from Apple) (I worked for IBM in Austin) and had his head in his hands. He kept repeating "they think mice only have one button".
