Funny how they were considered cool back when Microsoft was touting them 
as a wonderful new feature of Windows Vista. Then when Vista turned out to 
be such a resource hog (for this and other reasons), suddenly they began 
trying to persuade everybody that translucency and shadows and 3D effects 
weren’t so cool after all.

They’re just as “cool” as they always were. And Linux does them more 
slickly and efficiently than anybody else.
