I don't hate it. It's pretty Microsofty, but in a good way. They're kind of aping macOS's vibrancy, but there's literally nothing wrong with following trends in user interface design.
>>
>>58337719
I'd go as far as to say its actually worse for the user experience, even if just a little bit.
The good thing about the Win 10 flat design is that its easy to read, theres no distractions between you and what your trying to do on your PC.

Windows 10 is a meme. Windows 8.1 will still get updates for more than 6 years.
>>
>>58337954
Yeah, because 8.1 wasn't a meme
>>
>>58337088
I don't understand. How is this aero

>>58338674
8.1 was actually really good
>>
>>58337116
Looked much better than flat shit.
>>
>>58337088
That's really beautiful. Simple and works. Not too much going on and not trying hard like the other pictures.

>>58337098
Eh, doesn't really work. Needs revision.

>>58337131
Let's just add glass transparency to everything... Works for Apple. Clashes too much with the design of Windows 10.

>>58337164
Ehh...
>>
>>58339226
it´s a lot closer to the metro UI of the old zune with a little bit of aero

which was the best they did imo the metro UI in W8 and W10 is disgusting.
>>
>>58337088
>We want the macOS people
Fucking disgusting. It's a plain ripoff, just like how Microshit usually operates.

Fucking cancer company.
>>
>>58339226
All of them are from the same app except the inbox one. Only one of the groove designs actually works, and that's the one in OP. The rest are very half-assed so I hope the OP image is actually the most recent revision and not a concept we'll never get.
>>
>>58339411
the current Apple software aesthetic is kinda the unholy child of aero and metro, which is funny because that´s exactly what one would expect from Microsoft instead.
>>
>>58337116
agreed, I'd rather windows 8 and 10 styling than the plastic looking aero W7 had. I have an unpopular opinion, W7 was the worst Windows IMHO
>>
>>58339619
While I can respect the fact that it's your opinion, I have to state that it's purely wrong.

'Aero' felt nothing like plastic. It had a very rich glass look, and Windows 7 is by far the most efficient and stable Windows OS.
>>
>>58339660
Nice subjective argument you have there mate, Windows 7 Aero is the worst I have seen since it has that weird textured glass shine that makes it look older than it already is. In MY experience W7 was the most inefficient unstable piece of shit forcing updates down my dickhole. Posted from My W10 Machine

>>
>>58339619
I think Windows 7 was pretty good, but I also am not a huge fan of the Aero look.

I like the general idea of the Windows 10 UI - I like flat - but it all (OS and design) went to hell because of their touch integration. I think it's a good thing that they're attempting to make Windows universal, but as it stands, it's poorly designed because they're trying to keep Windows as it used to be whilst stacking touch shit on it.

Also the telemetry thing, the ads and all that is just ridiculous, feels like it kind of kills what could've been.
>>
>>58339768
I agree, W10 is spying on everyone and this kills the dream of a good windows OS.
>>
>>58339742
Standard Windows 7 comes with no drivers. And Windows 7 is almost abandoned by Microsoft.
>>
>>58339822
I installed W7 Ultimate from the very first moment it became available. Besides the first few months of using it, everytime I formatted and reinstalled, all the drivers were acquired by Windows update, no matter what the fuck I plugged into it.

But I can't refuse the abandonment issues. You are absolutely right about that.
>>
>>58339849
>Windows update
And without Internet you have no drivers, excellent. Especially since wifi and ethernet drivers are also not available by default. Also

are you lazy or just stupid?
>>
>>58339967
>generic
You mean the one Windows 7 doesn't have. Speaking of drivers, Linux gives all necessary ones by default without the need to download anything. So autists saying "Linux has no drivers" are retarded, since Windows has less. Both have automatic driver fetching, sure. But you can't say "windooz 7 just werks" when it doesn't.

>retards clinging to Windows 7
You realize you're just delaying? If you're unhappy with Windows 10 just switch to mac or linux. Otherwise deal with the fact that you're addicted to the Microsoft ecosystem and install windows 10. It will do you no good using an obsolete OS in a few years.
>>

This meme seriously needs to end. Who the fuck uses a touchscreen in a desktop/laptop unironically? Leave that shit to smartphones and tablets, that's where it belongs.
>>
>>58337851
>>58339411
It makes sense it leans towards mac.
Remember, creator's update+surface hub or whatever it's called, is made partly to capture the artsy apple-leaning fags that are currently reaching end-of-life with their current hardware, and new macs being either gutted(desktop) or a let-down(laptops)
>>
>>58341174
>This meme seriously needs to end
The only "cool and hip" thing Microsoft has done in the last 5 years is the Surface line, and those products are touch-centric.
Trust me, it won't go away in a long, long time.
>>
>>58337088
they will never do that.
>>
>>58340946
Honestly, if apple offered macOS on any hardware configuration (officially), I'd switch in a heart beat.
Even your blind ass has to admit Windows 10 looks fucking ugly. It's Flat in all the wrong ways.
>>
>>58339683
I had a really bad experience when I tried win7 on my machine. It took three days to get fully up to date and the updater simply broke twice along the way and I had to manually patch it with difficult to find tools. I just don't know what went wrong.
>>
>>58338674
I think a lot of people including me only realised how good 8.1 is after 10 came out. Shitty inconsistent UI being a major factor for me and 10 is an obvious mess.

10 is more unstable than 8.1.

the new start menu isn´t worth this shit, but maybe with redstone 3 and 4 windows 10 might be decent.

>>58347917
Oh, I see. That makes sense. These are a leak then. Can't say I care much, all that's being shown is some media player and a new outlook skin. If the folders or start menu or control panels got revamped, then OK, that seems worth paying attention to, but the other stuff is something most will replace with 3rd party applications like foobar2k and thunderbird.

Just do a hackintosh.

Nowadays it's fucking simple and it works like a charm with only as much driver hunting as you'd have on Windows. Honestly, the only difficulty is that with each update you'll probably have to disable graphics drivers, uninstall them from the 800x600 BIOS graphics driver, and install new drivers.

I like the general style.

I hate the date/time on the task bar though, it is perfect the way it is now on Win10.
Also the application isn't very compact with a lot of extra space, but I am going to assume that is because it is being used with Hololens.
