    How did you get your database installer to look aesthetically so displeasing? And what was the point of not using the available theme of the OS and inventing a totally new UI theme, just for an installer? Aaaaaargh![^] My[^] eyes[^] are[^] bleeding![^]

      It looks better than Mickeysoft Windows 8 Metro Muggle Monochrome Mumbo Jumbo Fisher Price Style. Edit: At least there are some controls that can look bad. VS 2012 always makes me feel like I have gotten color blind after MY SHIFT KEY GOT STUCK.

        I believe Oracles raison d'etre is that the UI is completely consistent regardless of platform. The fact that it's shite didn't occur to them.

                Isn't that the version that installs on Win 3.1?

                There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
