There were a lot of people who complained about the new Windows interface found on Windows 7 and Vista. I have not studied user interface design but I can say that some complaints are not valid.

One of such complaints is that the new Windows interface is radically different from the previous interface. Well, that is true. The new interface is indeed very different from the previous one but it is not something to loose sleep over. An experienced user can probably learn it in a few hours if not a few minutes.

Such changes in interface should be expected. Imagine where we would be had the command-line interface not been changed. We are moving towards the future and this sometimes means leaving familiar things behind.
