Arguably the biggest graphical change to the Windows UI in previous versions has been the implementation of Aero, the glass-like, and subtly transparent window decoration that has personified Windows until today. In Windows Vista, it was only available on versions above Windows Basic, and even in Windows 7, it requires at least basic hardware acceleration to run, and certain graphics-intensive applications would cause Aero to turn off.
