Everyone knows how much I absolutely love a red UI so this is a fantastic upgrade in my mind.
Windows Vista went red earlier this year, MSDN goes red now and I expect Office will give up their blue to start sporting a nice red ribbon with their next service pack.
If anyone asks, just tell them that the WiX toolset was setting this “red” trend waaaay back when. That’s right, we were the trend setters for all this 2008 “red is the new black” back in 1999.
