Comment Generally the same (Score 1) 333
Most GUI/UIs that I use and have used have been presented to me in the same manner. Buttons, check boxes, text fields, and the etc all generally appear the same. So what if they have a slightly different appearance or placement, the application designer is in charge of that, not some silly standard.
Some things need standardization, others should have it, and then there are things that shouldn't be standardized simply because it isn't necesary in the least bit. If you want to use a program, you will learn how the UI interacts no matter how abstract it is.
