Apple's Illuminous (Aqua v2) to Compete with Aero

Posted by Hemos on from the the-rumour-mill-starts-twitching dept.

tovarish writes "According to Apple Gazette Apple will replace Aqua with a new name (and hopefully looks) called Illuminous. Is Jobs scared of Aero?, does it make sense to go for a new UI now?, has Aqua run out of steam? The answers will probably come later next month(year)."

  1. Is this the new theme for iTunes 7? by jZnat · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Since iTunes 7 doesn't follow the rest of the Tiger application themes, this might have something to do with that theme. Maybe they're going to make all the apps consistent regardless of use? Or maybe they're going to introduce even more categories to use when designing the UI for your app so that you Windows themers can't copy the OS X theme? :P
