        <description><![CDATA[Too bad it has to present a negative view, but if that is your experience, it is worth knowing.I'll second your observation about the &quot;flat&quot; UI.  It is a seemingly small thing, but since we are interating with the UI all day long, mousing over it it is significant. It is an &quot;improvement&quot; they made in the ribbon with Office 2010.  Compare any Office 2007 app to it's 2010 sibling. In 2007, the edges of the buttons are clearly defined, in 2010 that definition is gone. I hate it because you no longer know where to click just by looking, you actually have to mouse over the button to see when it gets focus.  I hate it. If they wanted to make this alleged &quot;improvement&quot;, I wish they would give us the option of selectin 2007 color scheme too. I think it would be interesting to see how many people selected that option over the 2010 color scheme.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[... that something that is a 30 second task in Visual Studio 2010 should take me hours in Visual Studio 11? While I understand that VS11 is currently a &quot;beta&quot;, I found it quite surprising that this piece of functionality is completely dead in the water... especially when it is critical to developing the Metro applications that Microsoft so badly wants us to have prepped and ready for the Windows 8 launch!J.Ja]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I am personally sick and tired of MS coming up with so called &quot;inovations&quot; which do nothing more than stimulate their bottom line. If that is the type of programming a company wants to be associated with then good luck. I don't know if it is dollar motivated or if someone with vision lost it but I see MS now going the way of Novell. I am going to learn from the past and sit this one out. MS Win8 is the failure version of their trend of every other version is useful scheme. I won't waste my time or my customers with this. They may need to unify their OS but the interface should be according to the hardware. One size does not fit all.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[This is the kind of information that is hugely valuable. It isn't the sort of thing you see in a press release or a sales pitch. We need to know the pitfalls before we waste our own valuable time. Great job Justin!]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[not very responsible writing imo. Takes focus away from a lot of positive experiences, and people considering a move might think otherwise because of such articles.]]></description>
