Windows 8 has disillusioned many by the way it catered the much-acclaimed feature i.e. Aero Glass Transparency, which was a part of Windows Vista and Windows 7.

Michael wanted to convey to his classmates what his life is like as a person with autism, and with the help of one of his teachers, John Lozano, he used images and video to tell his story, an effort that took almost seven months.
