I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.

Why does my PC need a flat UI? Gimme back my drop shadows.

I'm really not a fan of shadows everywhere. They look a bit tacky. I've always liked flatter uis with maybe a VERY subtle shadow for navigation, but not shadows on every fuckin element
