People running Ubuntu and beryl have been doing that 3D rotating cube desktop for over 4-5 years. Imagine how fast technology is jumping ahead of what we think is the current state of the art! Moore's Law kicking in, methinks!!

At my age, I don't HAVE to keep UP...I just have to KEEP GOING!!! Hahaha!!

I been using "yodm 3d desktop" for my windows machines for at least 3 years now if not longer....I also remember a 3d desktop I use to use on xp that was pretty cool  can't remember the name atm.

I agree I can only imagine what type of interfaces they have now a days that there not showing us yet...I'm w8ing patiently though

I used to use (and still own, actually) a 3D desktop app called 3DNA, which was flat out awesome, provided that you only used one monitor. Once I made the move to a dual monitor setup, it just went by the wayside. Shame, too, because it REALLY looked awesome, and had some great games built in.

Dave to the rescue, Thanks  That's the program I could not remember the name of, That was one cool os shell 
I really don't know why they abandoned that program, it was one of the coolest things out.

I also recall one called Bumptop 3D but I believe the wonderful folks at Google bought it from them for...
Find the youtube demo here:

BumpTop 3D


There's a much Newer 3D desktop that (works on / for Win 8?) can be found:
Windows 8 "WIND" 3D


Before long, our real world will be in 3D!! 

The 2nd one looks almost identical to Zen but for pads/touchscreens.

I like this but wonder how much (no longer for sale) or shipped with win8?

I tried BumpTop a while back. I never really liked it for it was buggy, but this was when tit first came out. I have not tried the newest versions.

I agree Snowcrash  WIND does look a lot like BumpTop

Again, I think GOOGLE bought it from the original developers and AFAIK it hasn't been seen nor heard of since.
Then again...

I know Art 
I was referring to this newest version that is available http://download.cnet.com/BumpTop/3000-2072_4-10912219.html the one I tried was version 1.0ish

Sadly, the download button on that page no longer leads to the actual program. Any more these days, I just use minor tweaks, like Stardock's Fences. I've also got a couple of Windows Gadgets that I use, and I'm seriously considering converting one of the three monitor areas into a full time tabbed browser that's built right into the desktop, rather than as a maximized window (that way, nothing can hide behind it), but I'm just not up to that sort of effort quite yet. Used to get that same type of functionality with Windows 98/XP's Active Desktop feature, but it's no longer available, AFAIK. Shame, really. If you could design a web page with the functionality you wanted, you could just embed it into your desktop. Fun stuff!

Sorry Dave that was a typo, it should of read "was available" not 'is available."

I use Stardock's ObjectDock on my laptop, and I use to use there windowsBlinds. On my  desktop I now use Okozo with my own theme and RainMeter with a custom download  theme, I only have them on once in a while though.

This is to go onsale in the USA in 2013 for approx $30-40k. But oh what fun.
