Partly because I want to keep things simple, partly because of nostalgia, and 
partly because I think SGI Irix was coolest thing ever. They were about to take 
over the world with their massive super computers and cameo appearances in 
movies like Jurassic Park. But, unfortunately, their leadership failed.

And, like I said over at Neowin, there's also a wave of calm that sweeps over 
me whenever I see a UI that doesn't try too hard to fit in. That doesn't try to 
please the endless hordes of hipsters and gamers whom, while they certainly 
love to hate on others, wouldn't know how to design something proper themselves 
even if their lives depended on it.
