Microsoft’s decisions on windows will always be very funny. Push a gloriously designed tablet UI onto everybody, face backlash because nobody was buying windows tablets so it was tacky on desktop, come out with good windows tablets finally (or hybrid ones) but change the UI to a compromise that neither desktop or tablet users enjoy.


It's what you get when you have design by comitee instead.


Apple have a measure twice, cut once approach.

Microsoft seem to just hack away, cutting in the dark and don’t bother to measure at all. ;-)


It hurts, Microsoft always ruin the design essentials we love.
