The SphereXP

[Henk de Jong]

<quote> The SphereXP is a 3D desktop replacement for Microsoft Windows
XP. Taking the known concept of three-dimensional desktops to its own
level. It offers a new way to organize objects on the desktop such a
icons and applications. Check the videos and screenshots to get the
idea.

Used technologies
-Microsoft.NET 1.1 (C#), OpenGL (TAO Library)

Currently supported platforms
-Windows XP (2000 experimental)

So it integrates regular 2D windows programs in a 3D environment?
-Yes, but it also provides an API for creating true 3D programs
(actually it will)

From the videos, this looks like it would be a lot of fun. But, I think it
would drive me nuts after awhile.

It looks fantastic! I can't wait to try it.

Is it GPL?

I agree. Putting aside the 3D graphics aspect, in XP you can achieve full
access to everything by right-clicking a blank part of the taskbar, then
Toolbars > Desktop.
