treating the window as a single unit w/out a separate title bar is a good thing they need to do w/ the entire os, not just zune/vs/office.

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

This is what happens when you absorb the zune UI team into the business group.

remember when windows vista had transparent windows and they were panned for being ugly and pointless and then microsoft finally gave up on it 2 versions later

and then apple made yosemite with window glass and got it right the first time

I think zune was probably the first time they did it and it worked so well. if they had just continued down that path instead of going the metro/touch only route then windows UI would probably be way better now.

it's kind of impressive how bad microsoft is at ui design. when you manage to go downhill from aero or windows XP's blue-and-orange playdoh, you might as well just give up and go back to text-only
