Bingo !!!
It bears repeating ...

"It's all gaudy and big and stupid. Something with the same strategy but more class or better design might be fun."

Seriously Trevor you've nailed it ...
IMO there's nothing wrong with eyecandy - providing it's done PROPERLY ... with style and class ... And that's where the rub lies ... What some 
people consider tasteful, others cringe at ... 20+ million people use AOL ... Are they all devoid of design sense ???

Who gets to play design critic with these companies ???

Anyway, that's what I like about Warp ... for me, with the judicious use of a few WPS enhancers I can make OS/2's WPS be very tasteful and 
nice on the eyes ...
