"It's changed. It's not going back", I know, I know, ... no problem ! don't be so shocked ! everybody could have an opinion which is not necessarly yours ... ;)

Previous look was ok, why to change ? have take a look at Visual Studio 11 for ex ? very hard to work with it...

ok, I agree why why everybody now must follow these guidelines ?? if MS haven't do it first, nobody would have to do it now !!personaly, I find that these new look is more difficult to read coz it's very pale but it's my opinion of course ...

what do you mean ?? "swiss design" ??? it's the look of windows 8 ...

I hate this new look, it was easier in the past to read articles; the separations are over, all are in the same light/shade colors, ... why do you need to follow microsoft ? it seems that MS impose all of their choice to the whole planet !
