It's hard to look at Apple's new "Liquid Glass" aesthetic and not think about Windows Vista, Microsoft 's much-maligned OS which also touted transparencies and glass-like effects as a bold new vision for computing.

PC users can't help but notice the similarities between Apple's 'liquid glass' design philosophy and the Aero interface in Microsoft's Windows Vista OS from 2007.

I watched Apple unveil its new Liquid Glass design language for its software platform, but it just feels like a bad copy of Microsoft's Aero Glass from 2006.
