I'm generally with you, but preferred XP with the Classic theme, and stupid sidebars disabled. It had a quite a few improvements over 2k.

I miss real menus and configurable tool bars. I've had to piece together a Frankenstien of gnome-classic and xfce4 tools to almost approximate how good XP was 15 years ago. And some parts of it still weren't as good as the classic Mac OS long before that.

GUIs are going backwards, sniff.
