And I love the "What's that dirty stuff on my title bar? -- Oh, that's just the translucency effects. Oooh, Ahhh"
Translucency/transparency is exactly one of those things that desktop Linux geeks want but no one who wants to get something useful done with their computer wants or cares about. GUI's are great when they know their place. Get rid of stupid animation, sound effects, excessive dialog boxes, icons, and clutter. Give me an easy to read display with lots of room and scalable graphics/text so that I can always read the fine print. You'd think they'd figure that out by now.
