It looks like Microsoft used to pay more attention to GUI design and usability back in Windows 2000 days, which is the peak GUI for me too. Windows 2000 design is very similar to Windows 95, but changes from 95 to 2000 I see as improvements. Starting with XP more attention was paid to aesthetics and less to other qualities. E. g. XP controls consumed more screen space, which was a visible regression at times when 15-inch displays were still common. Up until Windows 7 there was a classic desktop theme which was quite close to 2000 and I used it. Unfortunately Windows 10 has no such option. I use mostly FreeBSD and MacOS nowadays, but still have an old notebook with Windows 7 which I occasionally use. If I disliked Windows 10 less I would have upgraded it to Windows 10. |
