The most interesting part to me is the Windows 1.0 screenshot at the very top of the article. They were using the "mobile menu" icon doohicky/convention at the top left. I wonder what that actually did.
- barrkel 13y agoIt's probably the same "system menu" that's been in all later versions of Windows (though increasingly hidden). It's the thing that gives you a menu with choices to maximize, restore, minimize, move, resize and close the window. Pops up with Alt+Space. Very useful when you've got a window that has ended up off the screen somewhere (so you can't move it back with the mouse), or if you're forced to use the keyboard alone.
- josteink 13y agoThat has been there, including visually, in all version of windows up to Vista. In Vista and Windows 7 it became hidden so that you had to know it was there, or (as keyboarders often did anyway) bring it up with alt-space.
