Mark,  I must disagree with your comment regarding "... only Java
people".

I learned of the term well before I became a "Java person".  In
fact it wasn't even an OOP language, but TCL, HTML, CSS.  In fact,
the development team didn't make it up at all.  We learned it from
the Business Analyst who also did the interface/interaction designs
for the client facing sites.  They often said they were trying to
achieve a certain "look & feel".

I have always interpreted the "look & feel" term to mean that the
"look" refers to aesthetics, such as color, graphics, typography,
and the "feel" to refer to things such as, the user "getting" the
message, ease of use of the site, basically the "feeling" of the
experience.
