It is something more than Microsoft whim. In the West culture we are
reading from left to right, from top to bottom. These are natural
starting and ending points. So, the most convenient place for close
button is a bottom right corner of window. That's why big buttons
(Close, Apply, OK etc.) in bottom right corner of windows works so well.

Top right is the worst place for close button. Think of moving close
button to the top right or even bottom right.
