Apple's redesign of their website is a little...depressing. I really liked the glass buttons from their last major redesign that came out with OS X 6-7 years ago or so. It was their trademark of OS X just as the rainbow Apple was their trademark of previous incarnations. I had a friend tell me that the rainbow Apple looked like the gay flag. OK, so maybe that's why they changed it back at the turn of the millennium (not that there's anything wrong with the gay flag), but why the change away from the glass buttons now? I don't like this new interface--it's like minimal sci-fi. Stark, bleak, dark grey sci-fi. No unique technique went into the design at all. Looks like any 13-year old boy with no artistic sense could do it. I hope Steve's recent schmoozing with Billy Boy hasn't swayed him over to the dark side too much.

It does look like it's going over to the dark side a little...do they make art on the dark side or is it all about the color gray?
