the reply i wanted! i had played around with the scalable UI in tiger, and you're right - it does get ugly. windows has always had a scalable UI - all the buttons, menu bars lists are all either vector/or levels of higher and higher res bitmaps, but it's been possible since 95, and all from the desktop properties...

i just thought it was a natural progression to go to 300dpi+ UI, but obviously it has slipped into Pipe-Dream along with Flash HDD (would we need ram? if we had 80gb of flash DDR memory?)

would be nice though
