![]() Don't get me wrong, some designs, fashions, whatever do get improved on, so moving on from isn't always bad, but often it's not improved on. "If every previous Windows UI is "dated and cheesy," then there is no reason to grow attached to the current incarnation."Īnd as for anything being dated, whether a UI, art, clothes etc, it's only because someone came up with a different concept and everyone followed the "new way", hence setting the "old way" into a date period and said new designer disparaging the old way and calling it dated in the first place. Personally I think the Linux Mint UI is the cleanest and easiest to use. ![]() Why doesn't MS just let us use whatever GUI shell WE want? Why don't they let US control our OWN PCs? Forced updates in W10 are the work of the devil, forcing me to periodically re-disable the ribbon, etc. The fourth installation is generally Libreoffice, depending on the purpose of the particular PC. Who the F'K ever thought that's a good idea? I watch colleagues who've been using it for years, frequently searching for features and clicking the wrong icons. The third thing I install is Ribbon disabler. The second thing I install is Taskbar Tweaker. Nowadays, on getting a new PC, one of the first things I install is Open Shell and set it as close as possible to W2k UI. W7 was usable, but I was already using utilities to get around the crapiness creep. I've been forced to use Windows as far is W10. I still use Open Shell, formerly Classic Shell So yes, if I wanted more of a workstation than a PC today, I would run 2022, however, I would still prefer the UI to be either W2K or XP rather than W10/W11 just with the functionality, security and stability of the W10 core… ![]() I'd recommend 2022 for obvious reasonsĪ couple of years back I picked up a couple of copies of 2019 Std 16 core licences for peanuts, runs very nicely on top of W10 Hyper-V, (well good enough for single user purposes on my laptop) or directly on the hardware (Lenovo L15 supported configuration). Same as all 64 bit versions of Windows since.īack in the day, a 64 bit version of XP wasn’t constrained by the 4GB limit on RAM (ignoring the Intel x86 addressing scheme which could be used to address 64GB) so useful for CAD and video editing. Not sure about this, I thought we were discussing the world of circa 2010, rather than taking a 2008 copy of XP 64 and installing it on a modern computer for everyday use. Server 2003 R2 圆4 (please R2 with Sp2) has no defender feature to begin with. ![]()
