I agree, this whole bland, gray and light blue with "pretty" icons thing can kiss my hairy white irish ass. It's like staring at the front of a bare refridgerator door. And as long as I'm ranting I'd like to say something about those "we hid your shit" thingies. THEY SUCK!! When an OS take it's liberty and starts messin with my settings I get pissed. I tryed to disable it while i was using Win2k, but they kept coming back in IE! Not to mention all the settings are hidden. Stuff that should be in Control Panel (like Network Proporties) isn't (you have to right click on Network Nieghborhood, and then click a couple other things). Wizzards for the simplest task, grrr...ahhhhhh!!! JUST GIMME A PANEL SO I CAN ENTER THE SETTINGS I WANT. NOOOOO. DON'T. YES I'M SURE, AHHHHHH! Insert bootdisk, three fingered salute, fdisk, 4, 1, Y, Win2k, Muhaha. I'm using NT4 now (MS's best OS by far, well win 3.11 was alright, but I don't think It will run quake3, and I have no use for an OS that won't run my beloved quake3 ^_^ Maybe I'll give Linux another try. Which distro do you recommend? Muhahahaha!
