In an interesting turn of events, Microsoft has said that the current Aero interface in the latest Vista build (the December CTP) is not the final UI, saying: "There are going to be GUI changes in Vista by the time the final release comes." However, not too long ago they claimed the current Aero UI was final. Will the real Microsoft developer please stand up?

Look at any of the 5xxx series build screenshots! Notice how stuff behind the "glass" blurs? That's done with pixel shaders, not just with per-pixel alpha blending.
well, that's just stupid. if they didn't have those huge ugly window borders, they wouldn't need to dress them up with fancy effects.
here i was thinking maybe there was something actually cool about the vista ui that i hadn't seen yet.
