What's with the white text in the menu bar, if you don't mind me asking?

I found black text in the menubar to be a bit distracting, dunno why... When i need something I can click/see it easliy. Maybe it's the constant changing of text whenever you switch to a different app... Oh well, cba to change it back now :)

Quills - that wallpaper is awesome. Where did you get it? Do you know where the pic was taken? I need to do some serious modding of my desktop, i'm still using default osx install for everything :(

I'm not Quills, but it's from InterfaceLIFT, it's called "The Salt Desert 'Salar The Uyun' in Bolivia".

Hope that helps. :)

    • Apart from a few very specific hiccups, Windows 11 has been good for me. Rock solid and stable. Unpopular opinion, I know, but it's mine.
    • No. Windows 8 had little to no spywhare, is actually faster than 7 but it has the dreaded start screen, nothing that you could not fix with start8. Windows ME crashed often, but was shotlived and replaced by XP, which is a much better windows in itself.
    • Windows 8 was uninspiring but it was fine / worked. It was just overshadowed by how great Windows 7 was. Windows ME seem to be just unstable for most people - I was using Windows 2000, which was far superior. The two best versions are Windows 7 and 2000
    • I don't think ME was that bad. The stability issues were mostly caused by drivers. This was when the switch from vxd to wdm was happening. The other complaint was not being able to shut down into DOS anymore which was silly with XP right around the corner.
    • As much as I hated Windows 8, although I never used it personally on any of my own machines, I think Windows Me was hands down the worst OS from MS. I have Windows 11 on 2 unsupported machines and haven't had any issues and I actually kind of like it. Still hate how slow Windows updates are though.
