Did anybody on here hear about AtheOS, a free operating system for the Intel architecture released under the GPL license? I've been looking at the screenshots and see some familiarities...

AtheOS : Comment 16 of 36 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Kurt Skauen on 04-May-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 15 (Kelly Samel): Still pritty far from the AtheOS GUI. In AtheOS you have a ScreenPrefs panel where you can configure the screen mode on each of the 32 desktop's. When you start a new app it will normaly open it's window on the current desktop. You can then change active desktop by hitting [ALT]+F1-F12 to select between the first 12 desktop's. If you "left-click" the window border the window will be moved to the new desktop. If you hold down both mouse buttons the window will be "cloned" and will be accessible at both desktops. Ie. you don't have to configure which window goes to which desktop, you just go to the right desktop before starting it, or move it there after it is started. I'm sure MUI is a greate GUI system, but it does not seem to look much like the AtheOS GUI. BTW, does MUI fix the windows so they can be move them partly outside the screen?
