This is where I'm at. The Windows 10 UI is so ugly to my eyes it is simply unacceptable. And what really pisses me off is that it would be trivial to add the option of Aero to W10. The code already exists. In their arrogance, MS obviously wants to shove their drab, flat look on us - whether we want it or not.
Fuck them. I won't use it.
Windows became more and more UI customization friendly up to and including Windows XP (you needed a simple unlock hack). Since then they have been taking that back bit by bit. While it's not integral to the functionality (and you really never see all that much of the UI's appearance when running in full-screen) it was nice to be able to modify damned near everything about how the Windows UI appeared. Necessary for the OS? No. Nice to have? Yep. Just another reason to dislike M$.
