Windows Vista was also notorious for going overboard with translucency effects in the default "Aero" style

My memory is that it was named "Aero Glass" which heightens the irony of "Liquid Glass" sucking.

But I see many references to it being called just "Aero", but some call it "Aero Glass" [1]

Does anyone know the truth?

		Microsoft marketing maybhave had a specific preference, but "Aero" and "Aero Glass" are interchangeable. From the same article you linked: > "Rest in peace, Aero. I liked you, a lot. Still do. And I'll miss you," Thurrott writes
