desktop

from this article,
one particular part stood out to me:
part about the apple company and the macintosh computers.
even computers, having its own characteristics and uniqueness are what grabs people's attention and what makes the item be popular.
as it says, 'more than anything else, what made the original Mac desktop so revolutionary was its character. It had personality, playfulness. It displayed a masterful integration of form and funciton, of course, but there were also instances of gratuitous form, art for art's sake."
I couldn't agree more on this subject.
anything and eveyrthing should have its own characteristics as mac does so which differs from others.
puls, the easy way of the usage was another key to the success of the macintosh.
