Well, while I would like to see something like that too, you give a silly
reason IMO... Many apps have their own interface style, regardless of what
OS they were created for... Even something as widespread as WinAmp uses its
own interface and it's by far not the only program that chose that.
And I think the new UI is pretty good as well. I do have one nitpick though.
You can start it up in a way that the first window shows is the mini
installed games window, but it still loads the store in the background.
Annoying for people with slow connections I imagine, especially if they try
to join a server and lag without realising why until the store finishes
loading.

The beta is available now for people to take a look at the update coming
to Steam that changes the look and feel to accommodate more games. If
your MOD is in the list, take a look at the text and screenshots, and
then e-mail me directly if you'd like to make any changes.
To run the beta, start Steam from a command prompt with a command line
like this:
steam -clientbeta betaui
The beta period is going to be fairly short, so if you find any
problems, head on over to the page on the VDC and add any bugs you find.
