     @cowanon @CozyLife @Fash-E Its flat and somehow less resource efficient than the old rounded ones. I think it would be cool if programmers had constraints put on them for acceptable resources usage. Like make a program "windows certified" by forcing it to be hyper efficient. Sort of like how console dev kits work.

     @cowanon @CozyLife @Fash-E Memphis Lite is still seen on ice cream cups at various places around the country. Y2k futurism was kind of cool where everything was washed out.

     I wonder if they'll ever bring this back, it's still flat and 2D (as opposed to the "futuristic" pseudo-3D of frutiger aero) but has personality:
