I didn't say that Apple was first- just pointed out that the "grid icons are actually from palm pilots" claim was pretty weak.

And I was pointing out earlier icon grid examples, not what was stolen.
Seems like the grid icons are actually from palm pilots...
Umm, did you ever see Apple's Newton? Its icon grid preceded Palm by years.
When I need to refer to the Urban Dictionary to interpret the fevered imagination of an Apple anti-fanboi, I know that the argument is getting heated up...
Its good to expose what a locked down app Mac could be like.
It's fun to indulge one's imagination, isn't it?
Curiosity killed the cat, it appears to be MacOS compatible. It is your standard launch a bunch of browser windows and play nasty stuff type thing.. Also tries to launch your mail app.
Another cat here. Wow- that was quite a ride.
I'm running OS X 10.5.7 on Intel w/latest Safari 4. This thing also fired up iChat, created many blank emails, and- most worrisome- launched Terminal. Yikes- time to pay attention to that "don't run as admin" advice.
There were over a hundred open Terminal windows by the time I regained control. Four different types of Terminal screens:
==== 1 ====
login: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
[Process completed]
==== 2 ====
login: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
[Process exited - exit code 1]
==== 3 ====
Could not open a new pseudo-tty.
==== 4 ====
Trying 1.1.1.1...
==========
Any opinions on how bad this was?
