>> Beginning users and many intermediates were confused by the two-pane view of File Cabinet

Definitely my experience as a pre-teen. The 9x UI was much more intuitive.

Yes and I find it annoying, because 1) they are so small, and 2) now you cannot intuitively know whether something on the titlebar is a button or decoration. Flat UIs suck.
