1. You can't see the file folder names? 2. What if you need a file at the bottom of the 'tidy pile'? 3. How does this add functionality to your desktop? 4. Why would anyone want their files in piles? Aren't file folders much neater and more organized? 5. Do you understand the difference between an operating system, and a real desktop? My review? It looks gorgeous, but using this as an interface is unrealistic.
Useless invention. So how does this enhance computing? We go back in time after computers replaced paper filing? ROFL. What else do you expect from Canada, eh?
im sorry Dont read this :In 1876, a young girl named Jenn was walking down a river, an insane man killed her by stabbing her in the back, raping her, and then hanging her in his closet. While he hanged her he said Bukakke Bukkake. Now that you have read this message, she will find you and her dead body will haunt your house for 5 years. Every night you go to sleep she will appear in your closet, hanging their with her glowing red eyes. repost 3 times to be saved
