    What an impossible brief to have to redesign/update to..
    Considering the impetus and inertia of all those years of products and 2nd rate identity and revisions and reworks, and the lack of consensual forward-thinking that this is now compared to 15 years ago. Back then it was ALL future, all esoteric, the connected world and spaces we live in now were monumental structures just on the horizon, we were at a sweet spot intersection of fantasy and reality. Now we're there, the new generation of users have never not known a Microsoft so embedded into the experience of living online that it's almost been invisible. To revisualize the brand and paradoxically straddle the world of the old future and the new social world perspectives is almost unaskable. All they can do is paint, there's nowhere conceptually for them, or much of the web and tech's visual lexicon overall, to go. We even beat Moore's law, our tech and web experiences spilled over into mobile and watered that garden a little, but we're going to be treading water for a good few years with only minor improvements in bandwidths, resolutions, novel social distractions until something like quantum computing comes along to deliver processing and networking that'll be orders of magnitude better than what we've been used to the last 10 years.
