For anyone who has played games on Steam, this 3 minute-ish video is interesting about what devs thought of it back at the idea stage.

Valve Devs Originally Thought Steam Was A Stupid Idea

BenQ is making something called programming monitors -- which I've never heard of before. It turns out that there are color modes you can turn on to enhance the crispness of text in a way other monitors don't do. It's worth watching a minute, from the 4-minute mark to the 5-minute mark, in this review on youtube as the features are demonstrated.

For graphics creators on the go and anyone who multitasks on a laptop, this indiegogo project seems interesting. It has 2 stacked monitors, both of which are multitouch and have a stylus.

@bradlinder Sounds like that would also be killing any hope of Windows computers having ARM processors, other than Apple silicon. Qualcomm was the one company that came close to having an ARM chip that was x64 speed.
@topher They probably wanted to go for a look as different as possible from Windows, I'm guessing. No matter how they could have themed the buttons and other UI elements, there's nothing more drastic than making them no-longer look like buttons and so on. Fortunately, all fashions are temporary, and it's just a matter of time until the old way comes back into fashion.
@topher System 7 for me was the sweet spot aesthetically, albeit crashy. I also found it very useful to color the files and folders, as another way of organizing everything, which you cannot do anymore.
@quephird Fond memories of that game. It's cool that the emulator works with the wide TV resolution to let you see farther ahead, instead of black bars preserving the original aspect ratio.

It looks to me like WolfSSL has the nicest documentation.
