While I'm pissing and moaning about MSW Vista...
Computer display manufacturers have spent years and many millions of dollars to create anti-glare coatings and films which don't detract from the image being displayed. They've gotten pretty OK at it. During the same period, PC software developers have expended many man-hours and countless CPU Clock Ticks to provide us with "eye candy" and "chrome", to make our computers seem prettier, but, somehow, slower....
Now the software guys have gone too far. Now the software guys are starting to take away the gains made by the hardware engineers. How are they doing this? They are putting... This is no lie! I'm serious and will provide examples.... They are putting FAKE GLARE on their programs' windows and widgets!...
See this image for some examples. Here's a particularly egregious example. ...Or you could just go to Apple's website.
I guess, as a fan of the "good ol' days"... I don't see the value in all the shiny crap. Sure it's pretty, I guess... If you like glare... but ... if your goal is "pretty"... I guess it's worth the extra cpu ticks... it's worth the extra memory... It's worth the extra cost. If your goal is "getting something done"... then... the extra time your CPU has to spend making curves, dealing with alpha channels and coping with way too many colors is wasted.
Just a thought.
