It’s (somewhat) official: There will be no major GUI changes in Aero Glass from build 5270 of Vista. M. Keith Warren sums up my sentiments quite nicely over here; in other words this pretty much sucks. Granted, it’s a little better than XP…but certainly not the “revolutionary” new GUI the MS camp has been hyping up for years now.
I’m sure they’ll do some cleanup/polishing work (or maybe I’m just trying to convince myself) on the overall look and feel, namely some icon work as they still look very rough around the edges (literally). The Glass effects (while nice looking) certainly aren’t revolutionary. So maybe it’ll be more about what’s under the hood, which as developers is what we should really care about, right? Disappointing news nonetheless.
