Windows Vista Feedback ~ Chris Pirillo

Apparently the thing that is most worthy of critical comment from Microsoft Vista is that fonts and colors don’t please Chris Pirillo. While these sorts of rough edges undoubtably displease sensitive aesthetes, does anyone else find such pixel-f*cking to be a little misplaced? Is the factor that will decide whether you spend your money on Vista whether the fonts in the installer are Tahoma or Segoe UI?

This kind of feedback demonstrates two things: that people like Pirillo are more concerned with aesthetics than functionality, and that Microsoft needs a lot of work to achieve a unified vision of their products and their interface.
