Nomination: Quote of the year

Some fake screenshots of Windows 7 have been released. They're quite good fakes, referring to possibly-to-be-existent hardware products, and including lots of transparent windows and transparent circular menus... transparency and compositing all around.

Someone posted a comment on OSnews.com saying that they hated everything on the desktop to be transparent. The user phoehne replied with this gem:

In fact, they're going to make the monitor transparent. That way, you'll be able to see the dust accumulating in the corner of your cubicle behind your monitor. Transparent text on a transparent field, over a transparent background with a transparent monitor. This is part of their new push toward corporate transparency.

I cacked myself :-)
