"von wegen microsoft hätten screenfonts erfunden, pah!"

pimi adds an important name to the list of screen font pioneers: susan kare designed the bitmapped fonts for the first macintosh in 1983 – among all the other famous mac icons and applications...

she's also responsible for some windows 3.0 appearance (interestingly, the more colourful it gets, the less i like it).

"the nature of user interface design is collaborative; much great software is the result of a team effort among engineers, marketing types, and designers. my design work – installed at the top level of software – has often been inspired by imaginative and breakthrough engineering." – susan kare.
