XP was quite different look and feel from 98, and it took a year to be accepted. From then, no, the look hasn't changed much. Improvements occurred in each version, and it had minor eye candy, it just evolved along
I gather the same for MacOS? Cheetah was 2001 about the same age as XP, maybe a year younger, its now 2013. It has the same basic design, looks old as you expect and now it looks similar but newer.
Unless you fully rewrite an OS it will look similar and evolve and improve over time. Just like a toaster

Gee!
I would have hoped that Microsoft would produce *some* improvement over a 10-15 year period....
