@charlesarthur @codinghorror True. It's new. From people I see, you have to use Windows 8 for quite a bit before you start to like it a lot.
@charlesarthur @jackschofield @JamesFirth Has there ever been a UI that's been universally loved? Not necessarily a "failure" on either part

@bazzacollins@charlesarthur@JamesFirth Oddly enough, even horrid UIs often have fans who are experts at using them. And hate improvements.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@bazzacollins@jackschofield@JamesFirth doesn’t have to be loved; but the best ones let you easily discover easiest path to solution. -
@charlesarthur@jackschofield@JamesFirth Agreed, but I'm with Jack. Ribbon makes it 10x easier to find features than Office 2003 did. -
@bazzacollins@charlesarthur@JamesFirth Ribbon replaced 250 menu items, 33 toolbars (16 icons on each) and 19 task panes in Word, so yes... -
@jackschofield@bazzacollins@JamesFirth suggests a very slight feature creep in previous versions. -
@charlesarthur@bazzacollins@JamesFirth Office users always ask for new features. MS had a long list. Also, it knows how often they're used -
@jackschofield@bazzacollins@JamesFirth intriguing how those rarely-used new features couldn't be filled by third parties via add-ons. -
@charlesarthur@bazzacollins@JamesFirth A lot of them are. Or by people recording macros, or by in-house VBA programmers. -
@jackschofield@bazzacollins@JamesFirth 750+ things were in the pre-ribbon office by your figure. That seems incompatible with good UI. - 1 more reply
