Ok. If you have seen the movie "The Island". The desk that doctor Merrick has... Does anyone know what operating system that was. It was fluid like the background was a video. I know vista has it...yada yada.. But was was the OS being used in that movie. I noticed all the desktop Pc's were Macs. but.. If you know please post. I don't care about it being human/interface compatible. only the visual aesthetics.

Thanks in Advance


First, that was a very fine movie.

As for the operating system, Hollywood science advisor John Underkoffler (MIT) is the one responsible for those impressive man-machine interfaces and probably the visual abstractions of the OS.

When I first saw the trailer I wanted to see the movie but for some reason I forgot all about this movie.

Thanks for the reminder, I am going to buy the DVD since it just came out on 12/31/06 and add it to my collection.
