The random, arbitrary changes to the OS in Vista make absolutely no sense to me.
If you are going to change something, change it for a reason.
The changes are neither random nor arbitrary. And the changes were made for considered reasons.
You may well believe that they are unnecessary, and/or may well disagree with the reasoning behind them, of course.
e.g., 256x256 icons are required for uniform behavior with current (and future) high-resolution screens. Vista will automatically down-scale them.
