Stardock's DesktopX - Cairo Revisited
No Comments
Stardock has been working on a new project, dubbed DesktopX, reportedly based on the features in a long-gone Microsoft project known as Cairo. Cairo was set to be the child of Windows NT in the early nineties, built as an object-based file system to be the hub of networked objects. This eventually faded into a technology rather than an entire operating system, and Stardock is set to revive some of the features as a layer that sits on top of Explorer and uses Windows. The Register wrote an in-depth article about it yesterday, and you can read the white papers from Stardock for more information.
