Notable characteristics of the original Amiga OS:

* there is a top global menu bar, but it only appears on clicking the
right mouse button, like a context menu; when the mouse button is not
clicked, it's a status bar.

* drive icons on the desktop.

* (On classic hardware) Full-screen windows can be in different
graphics modes to one another; dragging a window down reveals a
different-resolution display.

* (In modern versions) A dock-like app launcher, typically along the
screen bottom.
