To clarify: I mean windows to view content in, not Microsoft Windows.

When they are looking at the security feeds in the hotel room scene, they are just being displayed in windows with a selector/PIP window with overviews. Pretty great interface design there – it gets out of the way!

I actually thought that the most impressive part of the interface design was actually the mac computer that was used throughout the whole film – it seemed to be shouting that even when you have immaculately designed military intelligence embedded systems designed to link data and networks together, people will still want windows for their applications, web browsing, and IDEs.

The best embedded devices (ipads, etc) don’t work well in environments where you want windows to view your content in.

Just my take. xD

Hmm, seems interesting. Available to consumers in five years? I’ll have a much nicer home by then, this would be perfect for kids.

Comment on Star Trek – UI Design by Joe Snodgrass

I also agree with Trench. Additionally, well over a year later, I’d like to add that the UI’s used in Abram’s Star Trek are a hot mess of a combination of stylistic via over organic (on the Bad Guy side) and waaaaay too visual on Starfleet’s side. I get that they’re effects and should be pretty (sort of) to look at. But a graphic layout over a ship that you need to see is hardly friendly. What was the other one? “[IMPACT]” over like a million percent of the interface? I’d like to navigate away from an impact. Unfortunately I couldn’t on the Enterprise because I wasn’t able to see the ship in front of me.

It’s OK though. We suffer from a mass Over Intuitiveness now anyways. For example, you can’t tell me that iTunes 11 is easier to use than 10. Enough with the little learning curves, you know?
