Apple Finally Upgrading To Aero Glass
Ah yes, the classic "spot the innovation" game. Windows Vista with its groundbreaking Aero Glass interface from 2007 sits next to macOS 26, which apparently took design notes from... checks notes... Windows Vista. After 15+ years, Apple's revolutionary UI changes have circled back to what Microsoft did when everyone still had flip phones. Tech innovation is just a flat circle where we wait long enough for translucent interfaces to become retro-cool again. Corporate wants you to spot the difference between these two groundbreaking designs, but there isn't one. Just two companies repackaging the same shiny glass effect and charging premium prices for the privilege.

I Didn't Hear No Bell
The undead king of operating systems refuses to die! Windows XP, released in 2001, is somehow still commanding a higher market share (0.64%) than both Windows Vista (0.07%) and Windows 8 (0.28%) combined. That iconic blue sky and green hill background is basically the digital equivalent of a retirement home resident outliving their own children. Microsoft's engineers are somewhere crying into their keyboards while legacy systems administrators are proudly wearing their "It just works" t-shirts. The zombie OS keeps shambling along, bloody but unbowed, like Randy Marsh in South Park refusing to give up a fight. No security updates? No modern browser support? XP users: "I didn't hear no bell!"
