This pretty much encapsulates my feelings about Office 2013.

The interface is indescribably bad. Text bleeds into everything else; there are no margin lines separating anything. In Outlook, I cannot distinguish what is an email from what is other content.

Basically every user interface guideline there is has been violated. The flatness of it all makes it look like a big white wall.

And no, I don’t just “hate change.” Any time a new OS has come out, I’ve always been first in line to try it. Heck, I am usually running the beta a year before regular users have gotten hold of it.

The same with software like Office 2013. I looked at the trial a year before it came out. Other than some Linux software back in the late ‘90s, it was and is the worst interface I’ve ever seen. Absolutely unusable.
