Windows Vista looks beautiful

[the.dark.lord]

Firstly, before you flame me I AM NEVER GOING TO USE WINDOWS AS MY MAIN OS, I'm just making a point.

Look at this pic: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...C1_desktop.png

You've goota hand it to them, the Graphics are great. The taskbar looks less square, with the circular start button on it.
I like the transparency too. Look at the plack part of the start menu and the edge of the control panel window. They are both slightly transparent, and what's underneath them also looks blurred, like if you were looking through a window covered looseley in sticky-back plastic.
The start menu also looks less square with its curved corners and the picrure sticking out of the top.

Is such beauty ever planned for Ubuntu?

Ever used a Mac? MS just plain copied it from OS X.

For me, performance beats graphics any day. What's the point in making everything look good but works so horribly? I mean, I agree that Vista looks nice and all, but is it REALLY necessary that we see what is behind a window? Put more effort into making that thing more stable instead. I am sick of stuff crashing and not working.

I beat the hell out of Vista Premium and it hasn't even hiccuped. I also don't have the latest hardware.

it is easy to make Gnome and KDE look a bit like Vista, take my toying around for example:
Vistalike1
Vistalike2
Vistalike3

And how, may I ask, did you do this? (especially the menu?)
