| Category: Widgets A coupla' years back Pixoria introduced a product called Konfabulator to the Mac OSX platform. It looked absolutely beautiful and allowed desktop "widgets" to float either above or below the running applications. I generallly have TV Guide, Weather and Homeland Security Status on my desktop. They then made it available for the Dominant Platform about a year later. When the Fruit Company introduced OSX10.4 (Tiger) they duplicated the entire concept effectively putting another small developer almost out of business on the minimalist platform (except Apples' ran in a separate application layer, drained CPU resources and looked even more beautiful). It's looking like Pixoria may have the last laugh! |
