They shift progressively more functionality into the new Settings app, and in most cases when they’re done doing so I think the end result is markedly better than what it used to be. It’s a long, drawn-out process, but I do like where it’s headed. (Until they finish each thing, though, it’s regularly jarring to go between the two. Control Panel is perhaps hidden away too well; some things like Network & Sharing Centre need to be accessed through the Control Panel, but are basically hidden so that it takes some skill to find them any more.)
