I dont know why, but I have always been very fond of the BeOS ui. It was toony, but still said "this is where you come to get shit done". Tabbing windows together and quickly flipping between them with a simple keyboard shortcut was in many ways a lot better than what we have today. Multitasking on a smaller screen stinks (I am looking at you specifically, Gnome), but somehow BeOS made it work.by bjoli

I hated the small title tabs for dragging windows but apart from that it was a nice OS and incredibly responsive.On Gnome I use the multiple workspaces extensively. When on my desk, I use an Apple trackpad for the gestures and it works perfectly.

I remember being able to move the windows by holding alt (and opt?) and clicking anywhere in the window. This is how I do it today still.by bjoli
