Microsoft copying Amiga

Uh... how does it look like Amiga?

Aside from being gray, neither of them are similar. Oh, and I find it rather stylish and attractive.

I, too, turn all my themes. Themes are like champagne, ya know. If you don't turn them, then they don't come out right.

::rolls eyes::

How are they going overboard? I love the double standard. Everyone is like "OS X and all the Linux themes are awesome! Longhorn is ugly!". MS could license the Aqua appearance and HI guidelines and you guys would say that it's ugly, or something else.

Blind hatred. That's all I see.

Umm... he's right. We shouldn't stoop to Microsoft's level and just say this: "OS X and all the Linux themes are awesome! Longhorn is ugly!" just because they are from Microsoft. There are many other reasons to hate it.

hm_murdock:
I agree 100%. there are other reasons

Claris:
Jimmy, you would make a better case if Longhorn actually wasn't ugly. It looks like they copied an OSX ShapeShifter theme and had it re-done by a Disney intern on meth.

But for the record, I think Amiga is pretty fugly too.

I was unaware that this was a fact. Wow... silly me, here I was thinking the whole time that it was just an opinion. Man... I really am a dufus for thinking that, aren't I!

Man, you really showed me the light!
