==New Standards==
I was at [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=GUIDE_International&redirect=no/ GUIDE] (note that there should be a page for Guide separate from Share) the day SAA was announced. As I recall, SAA '''did''' define new standards, including a new standard for an operating system and OS/2 is an implementation of the operating system. I need to find material to support this and I hope to do that.

:That would be great. GUIDE has sort of gone off the radar generally since they disbanded -- It would be nice to get anything from there.
::Apparently there now is.[[User:Sam Tomato|Sam Tomato]] ([[User talk:Sam Tomato|talk]]) 01:45, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
Also, the article says "OS/2 Presentation Manager was a full implementation of the SAA presentation interface" but OS/2 did not exist prior to the announcement of SAA. When SAA was first announced, OS/2 was also announced as an operating system to be developed. Microsoft assisted in the development of OS/2 prior to developing Windows NT.

== SAA an alternative meaning ==
At an SAA seminar, a speaker said that internally they called SAA '''<big>S</big>'''cratching '''<big>A</big>'''kers '''<big>A</big>'''ss. This could indicate that [[John Akers]] was somehow involved with SAA, I think. --[[User:FredTC|FredTC]] ([[User talk:FredTC|talk]]) 13:37, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
:Sure. It is typical for people to criticize things they don't understand. [[User:Sam Tomato|Sam Tomato]] ([[User talk:Sam Tomato|talk]]) 04:46, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
== Microsoft Universal Windows Platform ==
The "Common user access" section says "''A user who sits down at a PC should see the same menus, keyboards and procedures that he would at a 3270 terminal.''" except now the devices are PCs, tablets, phones and such.
