@NanoRaptor @foone look its you

@NanoRaptor i'll take twelve.

@NanoRaptor is this a java phone?

@NanoRaptor Loved the CDEphone operating system, but more of an Octane-phone for the hardware sorta user…

@NanoRaptor ok, now I’m wondering about a LightPhone wearing this as a Halloween costume. (Or given the B&W screen, an OG Mac costume?)

@NanoRaptor

I can haz OpenWindows/OpenLook, PLOX?

@NanoRaptor I want this _so bad_

@NanoRaptor the @foone tweet just makes it perfect

@NanoRaptor

I read "CEOphone" first and that also made sense to me :blobcatgiggle:

TBH that would make a good smartphone case. "The iSparc".

@NanoRaptor Blessed be the Front Panel.

@NanoRaptor uses those nice slim VHDCI plugs for an all in one connector.

@NanoRaptor That looks like it needs a purple stylus poking out of the top.

@NanoRaptor can it run templeos

@NanoRaptor Make it so!

And include a webcam and a "mirror application" called "My Motif"

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social 10/10 would use

@NanoRaptor This belongs in the most prestigious art museum in the world.

@NanoRaptor CEOphone with just two buttons : yes and no

@NanoRaptor WELCOME TO THE SOCIAL!

@NanoRaptor what is SUN's flavor of Snow White design language called? whatever it is, have always loved it.

edit: Apparently Frog Design had their hands on that.

@NanoRaptor Can’t call my Zune Phone from it. Something to do with tunnelling the window manager…?

@NanoRaptor Well, some do worship Dark Lord Satan. Or maybe it's just fond memories of whatever GUI one remembers using first.

@NanoRaptor
Humm, I could build that...

@NanoRaptor ooo sexy

@NanoRaptor I NEED THIS! Oh my god I need this so much..

@NanoRaptor all that's missing is a slot on the side where a floppy goes.

@NanoRaptor This needs to come in a phone case format. Kickstart it.

@NanoRaptor Shut up and take my money!!

@NanoRaptor Well that's just silly. Where is the physical keyboard??

@NanoRaptor
I want one!

@NanoRaptor

I appreciate that they properly shrank the front panel and didn’t just cut it in half. It’s those sorts of little touches (like creating one common widget library and windowing system and sticking to it) that make Sun so well-respected in the UX world.

@NanoRaptor
Great, now I'm wondering if anybody has gotten CDE to work on postmarketOS.
CDE on Samsung Galaxy would somehow seem so wrong.

@NanoRaptor is this just da windows 95 phone? #lolz

@NanoRaptor Who hurt you?

@NanoRaptor I'm not even kidding when I say I miss the glory days of Sun Microsystems.

Solaris was awesome. I used it starting with some of the very early pre-release versions while working at Sun.

Around Solaris 2.7 it really became amazing, scaling well on multiple CPUs at a time when operating systems did not always do so.

@NanoRaptor hey, that's half the UI. The left half, specifically.

Not seen in the pic are the "Stop" and "A" keys on the side.

@NanoRaptor PocketWS!

@NanoRaptor the UI is compatible with the RS/6000phone too, I suppose.

@NanoRaptor showing exactly the post it should

@NanoRaptor makes me think of my Sharp Zaurus and its weird-ass Gnome thing
