This ties nicely into the "Five Whys" series that came through here.
Why is this VS customer pissed? Because VS uses a default font that doesn't match the system theme.
Why is that font used? Because it's always been that way? Or did the VS team change it around the time Vista was released?
Why didn't the default font change to match the new OS theme? Lack of communication? Did the VS team disagree with the HIG team at Microsoft while Vista was under develoment? While we're at it, why doesn't the application just take the window manager's default fonts unless specified otherwise?
This would be an interesting rabbit hole to follow down if I cared about Visual Studio and Windows development.
