Not Apple fans though. They can't wait to use their new Vista!
Aqua, an OS X theme from before you were born
It’s SO cool!
I thought it couldn’t get better when System 7 had color support. It was such a revolution. Then Aqua came along and everything changed. Liquid Glass looks pretty nice to me but I’m mostly just glad we’re getting dimension back. Material flat UI is a stain on the world.
I share the same feeling. The flat lifeless interfaces need to go.
I think there was some sort of color support prior to System 7.

Hmm. Apparently System 4 had color support, which is earlier than I expected.

They’re going for X with L-aqua-d Glass, but look at 7, so brutalist chill
This was 4, my bad, both tho
It was a nice theme IMO
Get the fuck outta here with that! Any red blooded microphile knows XP was PEAK windows experience. The lower opacity of windows in Vista was a bright spot in an otherwise disgusting experience.
XP was “the Linux” of Windows releases… 🤘
