Oh, so it's that time of the week again already? Time for MS to change
their
minds once again on which is cool and uncool: straight vs curved?
Egads, it's like they're spinning their wheels just for the sake of
spinning
them. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: The computer industry
has
become the goddamn fasion industry.
Win3: Rounded edges! Couldn't have those before!
95: Rounded is so old. Stright-edged (*cough* like Win1&2 *cough*) is
classy!
XP: Straight edges and flat colors are sooo old-fasioned! Roundess,
curves
and gradients are in! ("Yea, whatever...Luna: Off, Classic: On")
Vista: Transperency is hip and modern! More curves! More shading!
Win8: Transparency, curves, gradients and shading are sooo old-fasioned!
Stright edges and flat colors are in!
FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!
It's all change just for the sake of fucking change. Why most of the
world
seems to be so chronically blind to it is beyond me.
And then there's MS's "between-OS" styles-of-the-week, like in the late
90's
when MS decided all their non-OS releases for one year should use black
menu
bars instead of system-default.
Make up your fucking mind, MS.
This is one of the funniest things I've read in a while. I know you hate
Macs, but this would make a great Mac commercial.
Although I would replace Vista in your narrative with Win7. Vista was a
horrible abortion that should never have seen the light of day.
