Anybody tired of Aero?

[Cam]

Am I the only one that's kind of annoyed by the Aero GUI as of now? The transparency/blurring is really unnecessary. I think Windows should've gone with a Matte Shiny Plastic visual style, akin to Mac OS X.

I tired of it within 30 minutes. It is pretty, though.

 

[TGSoldier]

I like it.

It sure beats the crap outta Win9X and XP themes

 

[mickey megabyte]

If MS imitates Mac OSX style all hell will break lose
The biggest benefit is that it looks good on all wallpapers!
You can always look for new themes...

First thing I do is turn off transparency and transition effects.

Personally I couldn't care less for looks.

Once I'm working on the machine I don't think about it.

I love the functionality of Win7.

Almost any thing that took me 4 or 5 clicks on XP, (never mind Vista), I can do with 1 or 2 now.

Especially the Libraries are a gift.

Aero is the best UI created by Microsoft...

I love the glass effect...

I like Aero...
It's always good to see something new.

I'm kinda the same way. I turned that stuff off on my work laptop to help preserve battery life and I figure that the less graphical stuff that I have going on..the less my box has to work to generate it. It looks pretty...but really isn't very functional.

I personally like it,it looks pretty cool.
If you don't like it don't use it.

 

[Antman]

Duh.

Phew, I finally have permission, I was getting worried.

Ms is not stupid. They have this as eye candy for the masses. It's better than the old UI. Looks good. The interactive preview and glass are very nice. I like it.

Am i "tired of it?" No.

It's too bad Windows 7 in general is getting old already before it even comes out though.

It's a good thing we have all of the tutorials we can try out to make things more interesting.

To be fair, on the scale of really jump out and notice changes....7 doesn't have that many over Vista.

Aero will always be in my heart...the amount of research I have done on it

That's true. That said, I LOVE the interactive previews when hovering over the "superbar" The fact you can change the order and close windows from the preview is a big (and great) change. I love that.

If you don't like it get a MAC.
