It's a pretty cool jQuery plug-in, actually, if you're into that sort of stuff.

apparently a lot of people don't understand that the blurring is the 
essence of Aero Glass.  Without blurring, it's just like any other (and 
imho unusable) transparency.

I never really noticed the blurring before, but it makes things look very 
confusing without it.

I had noticed the lack of blurring. They also lack the white fog around the 
title bar text that makes it readable regardless of background or window 
decoration color.

MS definitely does the details of UIs pretty well.
