Looks pretty dull to me—we saw those U/I’s in the 1980s on the TI Exploreer Lisp machines.
Ug! These are terrible.
Do they have a Metro version?
This kind of confirms my belief about the Linux enthusiasts, they have no aesthetic sense whatsoever.
Half of those look like they belong in the 80’s, the others? The 90’s.
This stuff is ugly beyond repair and ranges from MS-DOS quality to the Mac OS pre OS-X in appearance.
Fugly stuff.
I miss my 8088, DOS, LOTUS 123 and my 10 meg hard drive (more than I will ever need)
TT

I decided to post here instead of starting a new thread. Any tips on selecting a good hosting provider? I am thinking of starting a homepage to serve as a central repo for friends and family. Possibly email hosting later on, probably no blogging although I might consider it later on if I manage to find some free time after this current fuster-gluck: three machines running now with different processes, one more backing up system for cloning, four refurb hard drives and adapter card to powerup and test, one new config machine awaiting install, and one more awaiting evaluation and upgrade as soon as I get to it. Not to mention several others that I need to look at as well very soon...
And online holders for proggies as I get them running somehow in Linux as time goes by on the site...
Ideas / comments / suggestions?
I tend to think people put too much emphasis on the eye candy. Basically I need to be able to get to an xterm and have some way of switching virtual desktops. Beyond that it’s much ado about not too much. FWIW I miss the wobbly windows and the compiz stuff from Gnome 2.x but I’m contradicting myself a bit here so I’ll stop ....
flr. Because I have to check this out later.
Linux Mint 15 with KDE looks good to me, but I still prefer OS/X for clients. Windows is only for legacy vertical apps that won’t run on other platforms. :)
