Still easier to navigate compared to Windows 8 and Win 11. Everything has a label AND an icon.

Also funny to note there is a clipboard viewer, which as far as I know from extensively using Windows, did not feature again in Windows till Windows 10's WIN + V.

skissane•1mo ago

It was still there up to Windows XP, although by XP it had become a legacy component lacking support for newer clipboard formats. Vista removed it. The NT/2000/XP version supported sharing clipboard data across your local network using NetDDE

Office also used to come with its own clipboard viewer app, with history support. It is still there in recent versions, as an option within the Word/Excel/etc UIs, but if you go back far enough (97? 2000?) it was a separate EXE you could use without having any of the main Office apps open.

And, if you choose the "LCD default screen settings" as a theme, it looks almost like Win10/11 but with proper window borders.
