That came from NextStep. They’re still in Windowmaker if you want a nostalgia trip.

With a similar sentiment, I still keep a VM around with NextSTEP just because I still think Improv/Quantrix is such a charming portal to the past--and still amazing apps.

I miss IRIX. I loved the tiles when a window was minimized.

We really liked back when NeXT was a thing.

Waypoint and sometimes Motherboard were incredible. It's sad to see them disappear from the space.

Seems like they killed this off. I forgot it existed

Wow, I miss those... Software from that era was just more fun... Things have gotten a little sterile since

Space Cadet for Windows that we all miss would like to have a word....

I miss CtrlP, but I miss the jump list even more.

If they were still using the Keen Tile Editor that'd be amazing.

FrameMaker is still a thing, but it's very targeted now (and no longer cross-platform).

God I miss Metrowerks, for so many reasons.

I miss ffffound.

Had no idea this was still a thing, I thought they abandoned it after the first release.

Homesite, I miss that program. Those were the days.

Bring back frames!

I miss Firebug. Simpler times...

I'd forgotten about this. Sad that it's not around anymore.

They're actually still around and make iPad, iPhone games and have ported several of their utilities to OS X, but it's nothing like their late 90s heyday. Played the crap out of Escape Velocity, Avara, Barrack, etc. Learned to make website just to put a page up for my EV plugins (mods, addons? can't remember what they were called).

RIP Stumble Upon. I miss its random weirdness.
