What should the new Windows look like? Thread

This is for my Doom 3 "Hell on Earth" mod for the feature "Simulated Operating System", although this should be in the mod discussion but this is casual talk. Anyways, to continue, How should Windows CS (Windows in the year 2146) look like? If you can create something simple in paint or photoshop that can get your point over, please do. Please suggest ideas too.

Something like XP but with Plus! these Themes for Desktop! They are just great! But new and different.

And well in Windows XP you can chosse between Windows Default, like the other versions, and XP Style. Perhaps the new Windows should have something like that.

EDIT: And a modDB alternative style!

windows will be phased out by then and the world we be running on linux

true . But I doubt Windows will be phased out. It is beating Apple so it will always be number 1. Anyone else have any ideas? I doubt Windows will look like XP in the future.

Even the roman empire fell.

you should think of a way to poke fun at it though. Have like a door control that has a blue screen of death.

It'll probably be bloated like longhorn and just dumb really. Or like star trek.

what would be really cool would be "retro future" the best example of what im talking about is the imperial gaurd army from warhammer 40k, kick ass

hmmm. Do you have an example of the computer interface style?

Heh, a mix of Mac and Windows. I may try that. Any other Ideas, cuz I really want to get the Simulated Operating System done ASAP.

Not a mix. A THEFT *boom*

theft I doubt Microsft would be that desperate to do so.

They already have

maybe you should make UAC OS or something like this, UAC is the biggest corporation, so it should have it's own PC operation system:)

Microapple or Applesoft

Hehe, funneh picture Probably not far off either..

yep... make a multideia show out of crashes because they are so often that a user needs to be cheered up in the same time or he throws his pad out of the window(s)...
