Here’s a great site and accompanying blog post that detail many of the annoyances that have plagued Windows for far too long and still aren’t fixed in Vista. They concentrate mostly on visual and design aspects (as opposed to functionality) and may seem pedantic at first, but Microsoft still hasn’t figured out that it’s the little things that matter.
For as much as they’ve hyped their sleek Aero Glass interface, you’d at least think that they would have made sure they got rid of all the “old” icons from XP (and in some cases, 95), but that’s painfully not the case. When you’re suddenly presented with a large icon that is jarringly out of place with the rest of the UI, it takes a lot away from the experience.
Hopefully Microsoft will not ignore the effort this blogger has put into detailing them in a well-presented, orderly fashion.
