Does anyone know of a window manager that displays your files as a 3d city like in the movie Jurassic Park or Hackers? I know about bumptop but it makes your desktop look like a desktop (boring).

I'll do better than that! File System Navigator is literally the file manager used in Jurassic Park! It WAS a Unix system! She DID know that!

I actually have a copy of that, not that it would help anyone without an SGI workstation. But there you are factormystic.net/sa/fsn Oct 14, 2009 at 0:27
One of my favorite YouTube videos compares the hardware-accelerated 3D window managers of Windows Vista ("Aero") and Linux Ubuntu ("Beryl").
It doesn't look like a city, but SphereXP is a 3D desktop manager, where windows are put inside a sphere.
