There are great advantages to XP, including speed, low overhead and reliability. No one should be criticized for using XP over Vista.
As for the appearance of the RX interior, no aesthetic can ever be appealing to everybody; design and beauty are subjective. Some people still don't like the design of Fallingwater.
Some never will.

Except for maybe that New Coke, the only known exception to the above-stated rule.

Analogies aside, newer is not always better with respect to styling due to its subjective nature. Consequently, those who prefer a more classic layout over the contemporary styling of the 2010 RX center dashboard are not favoring an inferior design philosophy, but merely a different one. That said, from a technological standpoint, the 2010 RX is, without question, a superior vehicle when compared its predecessor. Though, I regard the adoption of the mouse-based navigation controls over the touchscreen interface to be a step backward.

Never say always. But you are right 99% of the time, newer is better when a company releases a new product. Can't say for politics or people.

The new stimulus package is better than the old one where the government pays the CEO's bouns and parties.

Looks like we're going to have to agree to disagree. Neither of the Aministrations has done us any favors, but, how do you pass a spending bill of over 1,100 pages and not read it? The pork in there is unbelievable, and there's darn little stimulus. However the Unions really get their pund of flesh, as does ACORN and many other corrput organizations.

Some of them don't even get a full "pund"; some only get an ouce or two.

Just took my wife's 2007 ML350 down to the Lexus dealer with the thought of trading it toward a 2010 RX350. Sorry, but no way. In our mind, the ML was the superior vehicle in almost every way. We were just not convinced the new RX was a $47k vehicle.

Yes we agree to disgaree, thats why my wife always say
The way I look at it, the last stimulus bill gave the GEO a handout with no accountabilities. The recent bill is giving the money to the little people. Since I am one of those little people, I like the second bill better

I'm with you, as are all of my friends neighbors and most of my relatives. No doubt that we went from bad to worse.
