The most interesing bit is diagram on the second page of the article. For those of you that remember Turbo Vision, you'll certainly see an interesting similarity. Also, the Delphi folks will probably see some familiar stuff as well.
I remember Anders Hejlsberg saying, "Good ideas just don't go away."
