Does anyone else thinks NUI is not the perfect next step for UIs ?

You do know that you haven't properly understood what NUI's actually are, don't you? You might want to learn a bit about them before you spam the lounge with this drivel.

Let me tell you, you haven't understood my question. I have no debate against NUI, i have a debate against UI bieng generic and same to everybody. Next time read that message twice before calling it a spam. Because the thing which u don't understand is not always a spam.

Even smaller group then, I'm about as committed as they come (coding on a long weekend - X| ) and I don't customise anything but SSMS and VS, my primary tools!
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH
You customise because you know how to cutomise, think of a computer illiterate.. For developers , a friendly UI would just be a bad idea(as they think there is no need), but it will surely save their time and raise their interest.

There's two issues here I think. Customization can be a pain to support so the basics of the OS are reasonably locked down. Imagine trying to use someone's computer if they whistled instead of clicking the mouse, and burped for a double click, for example. It's bad enough with a left handed mouse set up, but if the whole ui is customize it would be a real pain. Also you'd want all devices to use the same paradigms for that user. The other issue is in the 'learning' ui - ie the ui changing over time to adapt to the users requirements. Ms tried that some time ago with menu options being hidden or moved depending on the frequency of use. Trouble is, people get used to selecting the third item downon the menu - so got it wrong when the menu option moved, or they used someone else's computer.

I don't want computer to work on my whistle. But what i want is, it should keep a record of my liking, i.e finding patterns what all i do on my pc(like google makes patterns what i search), what are the places i find difficulties and where not, and in response adjusting the UI according to it to make my work more efficient. Does that sound illogical?

Not illogical but it has been tried and it led to difficulties, because if your ui is different to mine, and indeed different to everyone's, then support and training become an issue (as does learning the system for the user) Unless there is a global standard on how to store the set up, it makes moving between computers a problem too.

Exactly, there's my point,we do have customization. But people actually customizing it are really less. Only those who are actually committed. I don't think a high school child will customize is his computer before using paint. He would prefer social network(where he has stuffs which he understands much better).

Then you haven't been to a high school recently. One of the major issues in schools is supporting student PCs, as they will customise tehm to the point of being all but unusable given half a chance - so the computers have to be locked down to stop them customising

That was just an example of person who knows nothing about pc. What he would like and prefer.

I already thought about it buddy, and made such application. It violates the privacy policy IT-Act 2000 A under my country's law section. And most importantly why the people will use your application ,giving all information about them knowing that you are selling it to the advertizers.

Ok Maxx, we can't fight that why the companies are not trying something, what i personally think. Its totally their call. Lastly, just answer 1 question. what will you prefer, -an OS which makes you learn something, by associating it with what you have already learnt in life - or the MAC OS which expects that you should learn about it first and then make him do something rest i am a biggest fool on earth, thanks for commenting on my viewpoint. stay excellent!

Current ui paradigms in OS use things we 'have already learned in life' - such as pressing buttons, stacking things on top of one another, reading lists, associating pictures wi actions etc. etc. etc. So, would I prefer An os GUI that uses my personal habits to tailor its icons, menus, etc, to make it 'easier' for me to use? Not particularly. With consistency comes familiarity, and so ease of use. It might seem like a good idea but people don't generally have a problem learning the basics of an OS ui, because there is cross platform consistency, so moving from Mac to windows to Linux is generally quite easy because of the similarities in the presentation. Use a learning ui paradigm and the user would struggle more in moving from OS to OS Neil the new one had learned from them. And the majority of computer users are using the computer as a tool to perform some function, and are not software devs or geeks who want something more.

Well if this supposed "NUI" is the same heap of crap that's called Metro then no, it's a backwards step.
