Nice. This used the #CDE desktop, based on #Motif. I did prefer the earlier #OpenWindows / #OpenLook, though. Partially because I was involved in the development of that.

Screenshots of #OpenWindows make my heart happy.

@mos_8502 @paulrickards

I played around with it on HP-UX in the 2000s. It honestly never grabbed me, but nostalgia is always super subjective.

#OpenLook / #OpenWindows, though... man, I miss that clean, high-resolution monochrome alternate reality.

I want that back!!! XD

Whoa, major geek cred!

I still miss #OpenWindows. That was such a clean UI.

Maybe not quite as nice as #IRIX, but darn nice. 😄

@morgant

The SE/30 was one of my grail machines, because I had a regular SE, and I always dreamed about having a machine that would be ~3+ times faster ;)

The color classic was so adorkable. I remember seeing 10" trinitrons on fancy pay phones in the early 90s and thinking, "Why can't Apple make a classic mac with THIS screen??" Surely enough, they did!

It's funny now that I so fondly reminisce about #monochrome interfaces like #ClassicMacintosh and #OpenLook / #OpenWindows, because back then, I literally dreamed of having color, especially the #Amiga! ;)

@Riedler

I'm on Gnome, but wishing I was still on #OpenWindows.

@fedops @sotolf

So basically it had just enough processing power to interpret X11 graphics commands, and just enough VRAM to display it.

Pretty clever compromise for the hardware limitations of the 90s and maybe early naughties.

I remember my aunt had an all-in-one Sun workstation circa 1994 with a monochrome display that booted off of the network, but it had its own CPU and everything. Pretty dang sweet machine. My time hanging out with her there gave me a love for #OpenLook / #OpenWindows that continues unabated today, even though it was in fairness a somewhat clunky GUI. Dang sharp, though.

As I recall, everyone got hard disks for local storage and booting soon after. I'm guessing their network wasn't up to snuff for diskless workstations. ^___^

Windows Open

The temperature hit 60 degrees today (Fahrenheit) so I opened the windows. Robin Sparkles approves.

It's not the eyecandy in this case, it's being able to see all of your windows at once with the one you're potentially switching to being highlighted.

I'm usually with you on the brutalism appreciation. Get me back to #OpenLook / #OpenWindows, any day!

I mainly use KDE because:

It looks a little like windows to fly under the radar at work
It's very functional (once I make my extensive configuration modifications)
All of the Gnome applications I occasionally need to run work without a fuss

If you have to run a DE for whatever reason, IM(NS)HO, KDE is the choice, hands down.

@itsfoss

Don't confuse this with the wonderful #OpenWindows.

@OpenComputeDesign @amin

I appreciate monochrome a whole lot more today than back in the day when it was all I had ;)

(Especially #OpenLook / #OpenWindows ... that desktop made monochrome look downright SMEXY)

I know there's HDR, but I don't know of one simple and universal 48-bit color standard, and that's sad.

Fuzzy CRTs make low resolutions and low color depth look GOOD.

I remember this exact image being shown as a demo image for PCs in the early 1990s, and it looked GREAT at 320x200x256 colors on a CRT, but looks like HOT GARBAGE today. XD
