I had to go to Super Duper's website today on a totally unrelated matter and saw this image. My heart just sank as I was reminded of the beautiful interface I used to see each time I opened my macbook. I hate you Tim.

Not sure I understand what you're so depressed about after looking at that image. Perhaps you can explain a bit better?

I'm depressed because all of these years I have always been so pleased when I would open my macs to see the beautiful interface that they have had and now those days are over because OS X AND IOS8 are ugly as **** and look like they were designed for small children. Just thought I'd vent a bit. That's all. I turned on my iPhone 4 the other day and when I saw the interface for that, I got the exact same feeling. Those older OS's are exponentially more attractive then this crap.IMHO

I am not a fan of the Flat interface of Yosemite. I have gotten used to it but when I fire up an older Mac get that same feeling you do. I really loved the look of older OSX and older IOS. Sorry Tim Cook!

Wow you guys got too much free time on your hands! Nothing at all depressing. Enlist and go to Iraq. That is depressing!

I like... nay, LOVE the look of iOS 8 and while Yosemite has some rough spots to it, I have no doubt it will get better in time. All you have to do is look at the progression of the UI over past versions of OS X to know this.

Hah! I didn't care for Leopard when it first came out and the "new" dock feels more like early OS X. Now I just need my blue tones back and things will be back to normal.

Hmm, maybe it's not a good thing if OS X is starting to look like it did ten years ago. iOS should have tried to look more like Mavericks and not the other way around IMO.
