Jeff Ruskin - “Macintosh Father”

Here are some of his postulates, for example:
- abandonment of the GUI in favor of an improved command line;
- refusal to split tasks into applications (the user must work in a single interface);
- refusal to use the mouse;
In my opinion, we came closest to the implementation of the " refusal to split tasks into applications , namely the browser window.
I think that every usability specialist working on the next masterpiece should remember the main idea of the whole life of Jeff Raskin - a convenient, humane interface .
