What's going on here?
In August of 1998, I happened across www.themes.org
- My jaw dropped when I realized these were X screen shots
- I thought our child was dead...
- I was mostly using Windows to get my job done
My first reaction: Why should I believe that X could ever catch up to Microsoft Windows, given X had lain fallow for 5 years?
- Not obvious that it could...
- If it couldn't, why worry about it?
It took me a long time to believe X could catch up again
- It will take another couple years...
- And required revisiting many old presumptions on how the world works...
