When Google released its Chrome web browser not too long ago, it of course emphasised that the browser was an open source product. The browser contains 24 parts originating from 3rd parties, and to some surprise, one of those parts comes from one of Google's biggest enemies - Microsoft.

"how terrible", "God awful" - what is that - technical evaluation of problem domain? :-)
I really don't know, what is so terrible with apps looking differently. In fact, with REBOL, I prefer non native widgets. I even think, it is some kind of advantage - to be different, while preserve the same app across the platforms. More so nowadays, in the internet app era, when ppl are more forgiving.
What is important imo is not look, but proper (system compatible) app behavior on certain platforms ....
