I think I got an overdose of "minimalistic design"       after eight years of Windows 10 and seven years of LXDE/IceWM.              Windows Aero was always pleasing to the eye in my opinion. Unity was just       too slow when I tried using it back then (and it crashed my non-free       NVIDIA driver too! Damn NVIDIA...).              > I will say that there are some other nice Cinnamons too :-) Not so many       > Unity/s.              I've seen nice Cinnamon screenshots here and there but I don't know if       they can accomplish a complete skeuomorphic "3D" interface. My guess is       that it can probably do at least as much as Unity, if not better...              I guess I'll take a closer look.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
