Beryl continues to shame Apple and Microsoft

Filed under: Apple, Linux, Microsoft — scott @ 1:02 pm

With a continuous flow of cool Beryl demo videos floating around the net Beryl is continually shaming Windows and OS X WRT window management. It’s surprising that Linux, an OS not known for its desktop capabilities, is what’s being used to shame these two operating system vendors.

So with Vista out we can count on not seeing anything like this in Windows for a while now. It would have to be some service pack or 3rd party add-on to enhance Vista’s window management in this way.

It’ll be interesting to see if the soon-to-be-released OS X “Leopard” has anything like this to match or surpass Beryl. If not it will be a let-down either way.
