3.9.  If you didn't care about going online 3.1 would suffice.

He also said he wants it to "look cool".  Obviously that's subjective, but IMHO 3.9 looks better than 3.1 (unless patched all to heck).  ;)

If you can''t be bothered than Classic Workbench.


I downloaded Classic Workbench a few months ago.  As I recall it was over 200 megabytes so I tossed it; Now that's bloat!  ;)  IMHO you can achieve a much cleaner and faster system by just doing it yourself and picking & choosing which updates you want but that's pretty time consuming, just ask me when I was 19 years old and would stay up till 4am every night tweaking every setting down to the individual pixels in my icons so everything would be "just right"!  ;)  **grin**
