Welcome to Magic Cap!

Magic Cap was a pioneering personal communicator OS created by General Magic in 1994. It used a spatial metaphor — navigating between a desk, a hallway, and a downtown street.

Navigation:

• Desk — Your personal workspace with inbox, notebook, datebook, and more
• Hallway — Go to the library or game room
• Downtown — Visit shops, post office, and services
• Back — Return to where you were
• Tote — Carry items between locations

General Magic (1990–2002) was founded by Bill Atkinson, Andy Hertzfeld, and Marc Porat — alumni of the original Macintosh team.
