NeXTStep Icons Still in OSX Leopard

without comments

Windows is known for hanging on to ancient icons. If you go looking in Windows Vista or even 7 you can find icons dating back to the 16-bit era. Mac OS X is not known for this sort of thing, but if you use the single window screenshot short cut, Command + Shift + 4 and then space, you’ll find an icon that dates back to Steve Jobs’ NeXT days. I’ve always liked the design of the NeXT icons even if they appear slightly dated.

The presence of this icon leads to the question: Is this an easter egg or an oversight?
