Which has to be one of my favorite things about OpenLook (from SMI, anyway.) the little 'graphical-waste-receptical' is labeled 'Wastebasket'. Sure enough, if you throw things in it, a little bit of paper pops out of the top. (Like the trashcan is full, I guess.) Since Sun can *prove* that its windowing technology is independant of Apple and others, this is almost a slap in the face of look-n-feel suits. More religion..
