minus-squareummthatguy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 年前The lesser of problems, I’d wager. Managed to bypass Vista… and 8. shudders
minus-squaregregorum@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 年前Lol, dude should just slip in some skinned-up Linux Mint. Dad’s mind would be blown because OMG it’s so fast now!

minus-squaregregorum@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21 年前Funny, because this looks a lot like how Longhorn did/was supposed to. Very pretty for its time. Longhorn broke my heart, and I haven’t used Windows since (except to play Fallout)
minus-squareSubArcticTundra@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 年前Agreed, I am also a Longhorn enthusiast
minus-squaregregorum@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 年前Beta testing Longhorn, and it’s failure, just killed my last ounce of faith in MS. I went and bought a Mac after that, lol. TBH, being into Macs are what got me into UNIX and Linux, though, so that’s something.

minus-squaregregorum@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 年前Now I’m trying to imagine Haiku, but with that Aero glass theme.
