[quote who="Tattyhat" reply="66" id="3345363"] I wonder which was, or will be, the biggest flop for Microsoft, Windows millenium, windows vista or Windows 8?[/quote] none of the above. their biggest flop is probably Bing. their non-English versions are so poor compared to Google or even Yahoo! that it is pretty much irrelevant outside the US. i even set my language to en-US in the Bing profile, but i still don't use it.

[quote] Not if you have CS6 which saves your work automatically at any interval you choose, but CS5 and earlier?

assuming that you want more than just a launcher and also skin the apps that use the Android api, that is not a trivial task. Android version adaption is much slower than let's say for iOS. so you would need to support a multitude of old apis. see here: http://bgr.com/2013/02/08/android-version-distribution-february-2013-316698/ do never expect that such a skinning app would wor

no. the problem is that the content of a window is different at different window sizes. there is nothing to zoom inside, but rather to rearrange. just imagine an explorer window, it will show more icons if it gets bigger. the ElementaryOS window manager has such a feature. you can see it in the first video here: http://elementaryos.org/journal/meet-gala-window-manager the developers there have cho
