Sorry for any confusion regarding the tabbed browsing statement. I was not trying to indicate that Safari was the first one to come up with tabbed browsing.
As for the spotlight reference, what I found so annoying was not that MS decided to use a magnifying glass as a search icon.
Rather it was that they are using it as a search icon, it looks amazing similar to spotlight, it is used for a system wide search, it is in the same location and the only real difference is that it is on the right side instead of the left in the search field and the glass is flipped around.
Furthermore, it is frustrating because imagine this scenario: A small company creates a web broswer called Internet Extrapolator. And, when you start it up its interface looks surprisingly familiar. So, what do you think MS would do?
It overuses color so it looks more clown-like than even the first incarnations of Aqua. Now that Apple has had some time to refinie its own Aqua controls to be more subtle, Windows is following suit.
Ok, so maybe there are only so many ways to pixelate a magnifying glass…. It looks eerily familiar. As a matter of fact, it appears from the screen shots that the pixel dimesions are the exact same size as user pics in OS X. In OS X, our trash became a metal wire basket that gets paper put in it when filled. Now theirs looks the same. They could have chosen from any number of trashcan iconography… but they picked one that looks almost exactly the same.
We get transparency and a brushed metal window look… Now they are doing a similar brushed metal style. Remember that, James? They could have chosen from any number of trashcan iconography.
Now that one I did notice and I basically shook my head. At the very least it adds fuel to the fire for users who constantly accuse them of ripping off the Mac, even when most of those claims are dubious.
But if that counts as a rip off, then I go back once again to how anyone could possibly defend Apple over Konfabulator after comparing their widgets to Dashboard widgets.
And yet Mac fanatics how gone far out of their way to argue almost as if Apple never even heard of Konfab and developed Dashboard completely on its own based on Desktop accessories from 20 years ago.
Someone here mentioned Opera, but they just got the idea from other applications that used tabs for documents within windows instead of the one window per document idea. I think the point of the article is that It seems like MS is purposefully making Vista look as similar to OS X as tauntingly possible when they have the option to choose differentiation.
Safari at least got that part right. GUI stuff typically gets introduced broadly by many developers across a broad range of applications and finds its way into operating systems through common usage supported by positive reviews and feedback. Neither Apple nor Microsoft invented these ideas, just implemented them in an OS. UNIX has a long track record in many areas of superior performance and security that MS is just not going to be able to match.
