No Offense Dude ...
But IRIX is no x86 OS ...
It is based on MIPS r4000- r14000 RISC CPUs
Therefore think before you speak ... You could offend a lot of old-aged mips fanatics ... :-)
They like intel/Miscrosh** even less then the apple-folk do ...
Consider intel a Volkswagen
Consider motorola a Benz E-Class
Consider mips a Benz S-Class
(Kinda a grandfather of a POWER 4 or a 970 in the server and high level computing league)
The Indigo Magic Desktop has a lot of things i would miss in the OSX ... like e.g. the scale wheels (lacking a better term for it) ...
If you'd work on a sgi ... you would get it ... that a 90ies Sgi machine is a 21st century mac ..
Hell ... they invented the multimedia computer ... :-)
Therefore ... we should adopt a theme ... in the deepest respect ... for a pioneer of multimedia/Visual computing, which sgi undoubtedly is.
I admit this is just a quick hack ... but I like the 80ies Bevel and Emboss Look ... somehow ..
It has its own charme ... and BTW ... it is not that much distracting, when working graphically....
