Can we bring this https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Crystal128-penguin.s... version back instead? I hear Apple has decreed that glossy/glassy design is cool again.

There were times when Crystal was even "ported" as Windows visual theme and later as package that swapped resource files: https://archive.org/details/crystal-xp-3.0

Wow what a flashback! I think I used to use this back in the day.

		I had tons of these "visual styles" and I remember how MS liked to patch themeui.dll and uxtheme.dll often rendering theming broken. There were also attempts at customizing XP booting screen to achieve the perfect "it's not Windows" effect but that could easily render installation unbootable

I'm a fan of the 2nd revision myself, it's sooo Web 2.0

But the OG Tux remains undefeated I'm afraid

		That's the one (besides OG Tux) I liked most. Though the "glassy" original Tux wasn't bad at all. https://seeklogo.com/vector-logo/274040/tux

		Clearly modules were broken and kernel couldn't be build

That... Brings back memories
