Aero isn't for current generation laptops, but Aero is just a part of Vista.
Plus looking to the future is good, I'd rather have a major new UI API done
once that everytime new HW comes out that enables one extra little function.
Makes writing code easier

Rendering 2d for your video card, as someone pointed out is child's play.
Having it continuously in a 3D enabled mode means it's using more power;
more heat; more chances for a nice graphics crash. Not sure what great

And how many laptops have 128MB of video RAM or more? Not many. So Vista
isn't for laptops, clearly. Of course, they're looking to the future,
when we all buy new ones. :)
