More OS rant......

I was just thinking.... (what the f***???)

How come after 15 (may be more) years of development and so called reasearch,
no os in the enitre world supports non rectangular windows?
Well to be honest all of them do.... i mean i have seen weird skins for xmms
and noatune...... but still, nobody inherantly uses the nonrectangular window
in the gui interface design.

I mean i am sure if people think about it carefully enough they can def. come
up with a really good uses for these. First of all its so obvious step
towards saving some desktop space. right now i can see the space between a
toolbar button and the right edge of the window being just wasted. the
address field also contains only one address right now ( its a email compose
window) and most of the right side is just wasted.

Intellegant use of arbitrarily shaped windows and gui design will solv the
problem i am most certain. Alas!! don't we have intellegace left in this
world anymore????
