    Not if you choose the minty one, it isn't. Microsoft ditches Aero for Weight[^].

    Henry Minute Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.” I wouldn't let CG touch my Abacus! When you're wrestling a gorilla, you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is. Cogito ergo thumb - Sucking my thumb helps me to think.

            This is all about Sinofsky attempting to make a mark. As far as I can tell, that mark is a dripping splat on a windscreen.

                  Don't buy Window's 8. I didn't buy Vista and thus was not exposed to the bullshit.

                      The El Reg one. Traditionally when Microsoft launched a new version of Windows, it carried over the older apps – it had to, to ensure uptake. This time, it seems like the older apps are being treated like second-class citizens for the sake of Metro, swiped off to a land of dragons. Yeaaaaaah riiiight....
