So long and thanks for all the RoundRects
I was so sad to hear of Bill Atkinson’s passing. He was one of the original Macintosh team members, creator of Quickdraw, MacPaint, HyperCard, inventor of the RoundRect, and so much of what makes personal computing enjoyable today.

So long, Bill, and thanks for all the RoundRects.
