There are a number of OS9 (well, classic Mac OS) features I would like
to see make it back into X. I never really liked the dock. I liked
that collapsable "dock" the old Powerbooks had.. its name currently
escapes me. I would like the trash can to sit in one spot. I LOVE
column mode.. but the System 7 Finder ruled the world!
