its interesting to see how we going back to basics. from windows 3.11 where there was like 256 colors through windows 95/XP more blurry, shadows, rounded stuff, through new windows design that just look "cleaner" and uses better matched color palette, but not much different from initials.
The funny thing is we do this everywhere. The most important thing I learned durning my time at art school was that the art world (And the world by extension) moves in cycles. Everything is a reaction to what was prior.

I've said for several years that Windows should abandon the 3D-style UI elements, and stop overwhelming users with color.
Imagine if you went to a website, and all the UI elements were pseudo-3D. It would look a mess.
