I know they are always looking to improve macOS, but are they looking to replace the full kernel? Would be interested in hearing about that.

OK, my error. FTR, DOS was fully documented, too: I spent a lot of time learning DOS (have of course forgotten 90% or more of it) and batch files and such. Plus all the undocumented stuff that fellow geeks discovered. However, Apple very quickly built a walled garden, for good reasons, at the time when MS was strong-arming PC makers into selling Windows machines, giving away API data, and encouraging everybody and his goat to write for Windows. Apple's design philosophy diverged from the then prevailing attitudes. Steve Jobs realised that a computer is an appliance, and set out to design the most reliable and easy to use appliance possible. He also realised that for a lot of people computers were geeky weirdness, so he set out to make it both a useful and very cool appliance, one that you didn't have to understand in order to use. Just like a car. That was his innovation. [1] Technologically, Apple innovated hardly at all. Ever since, Apple's competitors tried to catch up, and have succeeded in doing so. Since Steve's death, Apple's ability to innovate design and function has slowed, so that current smartphones equal or exceed the iPhone's capabilities, and the high end tablet has become a new form factor for the PC. Fromm what I've seen/read of the latest iPad, it's finally catching up to that level. >> As was >> Commodore's OS, but that's another story. > > actually, not as much, but the key problem was it had very little > software available compared to mac, dos and windows. software > developers were not interested. I think it was because Commodore didn't understand that a computer isn't just the hardware. Unlike Apple and the DOS machine makers, they sold a bare machine, with a few pointers to where usable software could be acquired. They also for too long neglected both in-house and supported 3rd party software development. By the time they realised that a personal computer is an appliance, it was too late. That's how I see it, anyhow. [1] My brother has been an Apple user since Apple II. He never cared to know how the machine worked, he just wanted an easy to use way of cataloguing his stamp collection. He 's used Filemaker for years. -- Wolf K kirkwood40.blogspot.com "Gentics is not genealogy." (Gragham Coop, Ph.D.)

Fair enough. I may have things worded poorly, too. Here is where I got
that info:
<http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2005/05/gui.ars>
-----
One critical advance from the Lisa team came from an Apple
engineer who was not a former PARC employee, but had seen the
demonstration of Smalltalk. He thought he had witnessed the
Alto's ability to redraw portions of obscured windows when a
topmost window was moved: this was called "regions". In fact,
the Alto did not have this ability, but merely redrew the
entire window when the user selected it.
-----
Aqua introduced the idea of a GUI where every window was
double-buffered in memory, so that any redraws happen
off-screen and aren't visible

Actual quotes shown there are on page 4 and 7.

I agree here. If anything, the Lisa operating system was closer to what Xerox had and the first Mac OS had already significantly built upon that. < snip > >> That was his innovation.

I agree that on the tablet scene, Windows is a complete joke. However, Windows Phone was quite good and I miss it terribly every day. Unfortunately, an update to Windows 10 Mobile caused the in-call mic to stop working and since it wasn't clear whether it was a hardware issue or a software issue (I'm banking on the latter even though a number of people said it was a hardware problem), I was forced to move away from the platform. Third-party applications were lacking and therefore caused it to be ignored but on its own, it was pretty damned good. < snip > -- SilverSlimer Minds: @silverslimer

Even low-end tablets are selling well, at the one I visit most, there are more tablets than laptops displayed. They do what most people want: surf the web, email, photo, and video, plus connect to anything wi-fi or Bluetooth. Most people do _not_ want to add all kinds of programs to their devices, or tweak them with 3rd party hardware and software. Some tablets are being offered with 4G, ie, you can use them as a phone if you want. Some people want. And then there's the Surface. I have a Surface 2, it's a PC the size of a sheet of paper, albeit somewhat thicker. ;-) It's our travel computer. I'm trying to persuade myself I "need" a Surface 4, but so far my Presbyterian hangover has stopped me form doing that. You know, "self-discipline good, self-indulgence bad."
