No one can ever change my mind: QNX had/has the best designed GUI of all-time.
http://toastytech.com/guis/qnx621.html http://toastytech.com/guis/qnx621.html
The custom pixel font, the modest yet vibrant colours, the icon design, the entire desktop shell, the fact that it is actually a UNIX-compatible OS, from a time Windows had a Fisher-Price UI and Linux looked... quite utilitarian.
Every time someone posts a GUI gallery site like this one, the first thing I do is navigate to the QNX section, and just marvel at what looks like a BeOS/Windows 95 love child from an alternate universe, and get all nostalgic for what seems to be a niche embedded RTOS I and many other have never used.
I would love SerenityOS to make a couple steps closer to this aesthetic ideal than the Windows 95 look.
