What do you mean? Using the GPU to do the interface will provide a much faster experience. This glass interface is simply a showcase of what is possible as a result of using the GPU. Even if MS fucks up and releases the current Aero Glass theme as-is in Vista final (please God I hope not), we will see third-party themes released very soon as we have with XP.

I don't see it as an issues considering there will be themes out for it once it's released and Themes are supposed to be unlocked this time around.
And what's wrong with actually using the GPU to provide a more advanced and capable user interface? This is 2005.
