It's practically the same thing. Widgets not equalling gadgets well no derr but it's still has the same info and everything and it's a side thing.

The Chess thing is the same concept they change one to porcelain and don't have 4 only 3 ooo.

The search bar same concept so what if they move it somewhere else? It's the same thing! Gah I should've commented this on the video but w/e.

You do realize that he's being completely facetious and sarcastic in his video, right?

lol I figured he was after watching it a second time. I was noticing that the first time too but I didn't really catch on until the last part of the video. He kept saying "not the same" in a sarcastic voice too. So yes i did realize it but a little later after my post hehe.
