Good list. I remember most of these things. I always felt that somehow in a better universe, OpenDoc could have amounted to something. Interesting that only the Mouse, Flower Power iMacs, and the Mac XL (sorta) were done under Steve Jobs' watch; the others were during his exile. Interesting that Word 6.0 is included; it is of course a Microsoft product.

Dec 7, 2005 - NASA's Cassini spacecraft has wrapped up a successful year exploring Saturn's icy moons, and scientists have released a new set of images to celebrate. New images of Rhea were taken during Cassini's November 26th flyby, when the spacecraft dipped within 500 km (310 miles) of Rhea's surface. Other images include "zoomable" mosaics of Rhea and Hyperion taken at high resolution.
