And for further, albeit off-topic, discussion:
The operating system on the Sony Magic Link, as well as the Motorola
Envoy, was called Magic Cap. The look and feel of Magic Cap was designed,
for the most part, by Susan Kare - who designed the icons, bitmap fonts,
and sundry other interface elements for the original Mac. She also worked
on icons and such for Windows 3.0, OS/2 Warp, and Eazel's Nautilus
desktop - but then again, everyone has lapses in judgement during their
careers.
