Classic App

Not many people agree with this, but i'll suggest it anyway.

Since the classic env. runs side by side with mac os x and will eventually become a application like X11 env. i think brushed metal should be its theme.

Strengths:

a) it is better looking than platinum
b) it keeps that gray that people like
c) more consistency with mac os x

Weaknesses:

a) apple would have to rewrite it's exceptions for brushed metal guidelines.
b) some people want the gap between the two interfaces
c) people still want gray

well it is just a thought:)
