OOBE, Calibri and AERO: A Conversation with Jenny Lam
The Windows desktop experience we live with daily is a source of many sleepless nights for Chris Pirillo. He’s a sort of consumer experience ombudsman, advocating something more consistent than the Luna theme from Windows XP. At CES 2006 Jenny Lam, part of the core experience team for Windows Vista, talked with Chris about the AERO desktop experience, the design of the latest fonts and interface in Windows Vista. This isn’t your typical rah-rah Microsoft message, with Jenny admitting she was once a Mac user and joined the design team at Microsoft in hopes of making an impact. I couldn’t find the AERO team blog at the time of this posting, but there’s good stuff that spans the gap between Microsoft Office and the Windows Experience in Jensen Harris: An Office User Interface Blog.
