The whole "universal friendliness" approach that they are trying to pull off with their GUIs only reminds me of dystopian fiction for some reason. Like we're getting closer and closer to completely transparent and minimalistic cyberpunk corporate interfaces. How long until they start adopting the visual styles straight from sci fi movies that present them?

As for adoption: Expect it to be forced onto users through new laptops and then quickly adopted unconditionally "due to dropping market share of the other windows versions". Like what they did with windows vista to make it sell at all.

EDIT: Sad ninja'd me with the laptops.
