didn't the same thing happen with XP when everyone was running win98 or win2k,
Yup. I hated it then, too.
Seeing 'Vista', 'XP', or any logo, right down to that little freakin' apple on the start button is enough to keep me from downloading it. (Then again, I did an anti-vista/longhorn wall about a year or so ago) <<<< shameless plug!
But I really do hate it. Especially 'poor' renderings of the logo's or 'style'.
I knew a guy, way back in the 70's when people still used matches to light their cig's. He would buy matches by the box, but they had to be plain white covers. His theory was that if he was going to advertise for someone else, he should get paid for it. He drove a Pontiac Catalina, and even pulled off all of the Pontiac logo's and stuff. he would say "I have already given up my hard earned money for the product. If I am to advertise further, I should get something." He also used to go around repeating some stupid limerick about 'Doo-I-Ditty' and would go berserk if you used one of his matches. (20 matches-20 cigarette's)
