I think you'll find that the systems which have the scroll bar on the
right are also more than 10 years old. There may have been
advances made
in GUI's in the last ten years, but the position of the scroll bar is
not one of them.
First of all, do you really think i'm so stupid i didn't know that
there are systems with right scrollbars that are more than 10 year
old? This is not a counter argument, you're only trying to shut me up.
Secondly, who are you to consider some new features are advances and
others not? You are definitely not objective.
I never said that left scrollbars are bad because they're 10 year
old, and personally i don't care about it, when i read the mail
asking for right side scrollbars, i just thought "hey, but they're
already on the right side" and checked and realized they're not.
It's not about the age of features, the computer window concept is
more than 20 year old and it is still the best i think.
The question is:
What is the use of copying the "graphical" look and behaviour of
something that is 10year old.
It's all about design, style etc...
The use people makes of things changes with the time, and what was
considered great in the past can be considered not that great after all.
There are hundreds of examples.
