> ...funnily most of it has reverted back
What are you talking about? The pinstripes date all the way back to System 1. The modern OS X looks different from 10.0 but a lot more like 10.0 than like System 9.

True, but they were a _lot_ nicer. I remember at the time people complaining a lot about OS X look, including the stripes, and wanted the old look back. So I guess most of us don't feel like they are really the same. But I get your point.
As for the look of Snow Leopard vs. MacOS 9 and MacOS X 10.0 I'd say a lot has reverted back. The old one in particular used a lot of greys, which OS X at the beginning was trying to get away from ("Look, it's all colourful!").
So yeah, maybe I exaggerated when I said most of it, but you've got to admit that the look has moved back to the more subtle ways of Classic than the flashy ways of 10.0, no?
