And why should I care? I've seen videos of this and have tried it on a 
few machines. As far as I can see, it is nothing more than eye candy 
that I don't care about. The first thing I do with a new install of 
any OS, any desktop, is to disable all the effects. I don't need no 
steenkin' fading menus or dancing windows. I suspect it appeals to 
the same people who think it's "cool" to have Flash gateway pages for 
web sites (with no "I want to leave this moronic page, NOW!" link).
