Re: Theme colors in the Vista era

Paul Thurrot highlights what I fear may just be the tip of the iceberg
in this story:

Some good points, though for the x64 Vista, if all builds before 5782 resulted in a painful crash/freeze hell, the 5782 seems okay, and so far what I've thrown at it, it did accept.
AeroGlassing D7 apps (you can easily get the transparency anywhere on the form) is kinda fun (if not very useful). I foresee a bit of a UI hell however: if you tweak an UI for Vista good looks, the 256 or even 65k colors Citrix terminal aspect kinda suffers (and vice-versa). The gap was already there with XP themes, but with Vista, it's getting worse. Too bad, most of our customers are busy replacing desktop PCs with terminals... they won't be moving to AeroGlass anytime soon.
