A Brief History of Design: How I came to appreciate Microsoft’s design roots

#aesthetic #culture #design #design_history #digital_preservation #microsoft #technology_history | <blockquote>It is easy to question everything designed before you when you join a new company. I mean, why the heck would a scroll bar be red in Windows 2.0 … what could they have possibly been thinking?! But while it may be fun and easy to criticize the past, it is crucial to ask the question “why?” To realize that those who came before were pretty damn cutting-edge, and that each design decision carries the baggage of late nights, pulled hair, teamwork, innovation, and expertise.</blockquote>
