In a previous review of the Atari 520ST the comment was made about
Atari's polish on their operationg system, 'which was Mac-Like'.
Now, I know that Apple has patented the pull-down idea, amoung others.
Questions:
	Is anyone else using the Apple stratagy, licienced or otherwise?
	
	What other menu methods are there (I know...don't ask)?
	
	Is what the Atari ST series using, new?
	(Pop-down, rather then pull-down)
	(Mind you, I've watched my slippering hand pull-down
	a number of menu on the Mac...)
