Rants about Vista UI
To be honest, the Start menu found in the latest beta builds of Windows Vista is quite disappointing given its lack of innovation compared to other UI elements.

Vista UI and "vertical tabs" in TPageControl
What I found amusing is that you hear a lot of rants/gripes about the GUI and look and feel that Vista is going to have primarily from Linux users. Okay... so they don't think the UI is anything great. But here is what I find amusing. I've been running windowmaker on my SuSE machine lately.
