Not to be cantankerous, but I'm not so sure I agree with the idea of a catalog. At least for now, we have a huge job on our hands just to get the basic articles developed. I recommend leaving the idea of a catalog for sometime far in the future. Besides, some of the items on the list are mostly imaginary, or in the past, so they probably don't have logos, and I'm not sure the info about each OS will fit so easily into template format. Surely, for now, a list linking out to detailed articles ought to be sufficient.Pat Palmer 15:27, 22 September 2007 (CDT)
