Re:still the windows metaphor (Score 1)

We only need a metaphor to explain something new. But a kid growing up in 2020 will spend more time looking at virtual windows then real ones. He will not need a new methaphor unless there is something new to explain. In fact, it could work the other way around, complex new systems might be explained as a kind of collection of windows. And mail might be explained as a kind of email but with real paper.
