As someone still using a Windows 6.5 device for work, I'll say Windows 7 has come a long way. However, those "blocks" on the home screen are like screens from my Atari 8 bit computer I had in 1983. You have a beautiful hi res screen and when you turn it on you are going to see nice big blocks. That is sexy with a capital S! I'm actually shocked at the number of people who seem to really like it. Maybe its because it looks like their Zune once you get by the home screen. I don't know. All I know is that to me, its horrible and not something I'd be proud to show off.
Now I can't completely defend Android either. Android's interface is bland yet customizable but even with customization can look like a kludge. Its interface is choppy and lacks the glitz and butter feel of an iPhone. But yet Android is a solid phone with great potential. I think once Gingerbread comes out along with the Google Music service, we are going to see Android get more into the multimedia fun. Time will tell....
