Why do so many people over at 2ch insist on using classic mode for their xp, vista, 7, etc...? Apparently they think it's a superior interface or someshit?

The Japs are forever stuck in the past when it comes to computers.

They're still using 1Ghz single cores and 1GB of ram over there. Gotta converse those resources.

But they're doing this on their brand new computers, I'm so confused..., and according to a few threads that I've read, it's not really about performance. They seem to realize that turning aero off is actually a decrease in performance.

Aero looks pretty terrible. I like the classic style better.

Because it looks better?
And why don't you ask 2ch about it?

I have Windows 7 but try to make it look as much like 98 as possible.

They were saying something about windows 95 being the best ui

Classic mode is obligatory for XP as the new look is shit. For Win 7, I don't know.

I use classic mode in xp.

Oh wow.

I'm still on a 3ghz single core and I feel like a dinosaur ;_;

Classic UI has its charm. What does it matter anyway? I want to know when they stop using Shift_JIS.

>> No.4718337

I don't know about 2ch, but I switched from Aero to Classic because several programs couldn't display correctly in Aero.

>> No.4718371

>>4718331
pretty much this.

also it's not like there's another wrong with the old ui. it has the same functionality. microsoft just has to keep changing it so they don't seem like they're sitting on their ass doing nothing and falling behind aesthetic trends.

It's like linux users insisting command lines are better.
Personally I want to use classic too but I find minimalistic skins much better

Classic mode is perfect.

Most CLI users use a graphical environment. And also, CLIs are useful.

Also, classical, but prefer minimalist skins? Not much gets more minimal than that.

This. It feels more responsive too.

Jeez, and I thought I was outdated with my Athlon x2 6000+ and 3gb RAM. People can get triple or double the cores and RAM that I have nowadays, plus turbo and shit.

I wonder if it's related to how their websites look like you've warped back to the 90s.

Just because people on 2ch say it doesn't mean they're not trolling.

Because I want to get things done on Win7 so a simple interface works better than Aero clogging things up.

And Aero looks like shit.

Thinner taskbars, buttons are smaller, sidebars and all removed and cleaner looking fonts.

First the CRT vs LCD shit and now this

>> No.4718556

Because it looks better. First thing I did back when I got XP was to change to classical mode.

For Win7, I'm fine with the new style. Doesn't look quite as shit as XP.

Are you saying you're using/you used the new style for XP? Are you a faggot or something?

>> No.4718573

>>4718539
This is at least /jp/ related. The CRT vs LCD crap was cross-posted on /g/ and probably others.

>>4718531
Oh so a customized classic skin. That's OK. (I would put a smiley here but then I'd suffer a whole world of pain)

I skinned it, like a lot of other people who didn't like xp's standard look.

This. I am tired of having to convert shit from sjis to utf-8.
