Fast enough here is that wiki.

The irony is that we argue about whether systems should be application-centered or document-centered, probably the two most important entities in a computer. Have you ever seen a system which lets you, out-of-the-box, hit a corner in order to do anything at all even remotely related to anything having anything at all to do with a document or application? So maybe documents aren’t the most important entity in a computer. Browse the internet by hitting the screen corner? Check mail in the screen corner? Get Info in the screen corner? System preferences in the screen corner? Switching applications in the screen corner?

And this argument makes more sense after seeing SymphonyOS: a Desktop computer operating system based on Debian GNU/Linux and Knoppix GNU/Linux.

I seems some people out there is really working on human computer interfaces…
Great job. I’m impressed.
