I'm just wondering if I'm alone in thinking this, and perhaps it has to do with that I started on an A500 and a long time later got an A1200, but I think the default look for Workbench (say 1.2 or 1.3) looks better than WB 3.x.
For me it's the drab grey background and almost monochrome look to WB3.x by default, whereas the colour scheme picked for WB1.x looks quite cheerful.
I agree for the most part that out of the box, WB1.x is nicer looking. But as others have
mentioned, you can change the colours, etc. Personally, I like the icons better also on
WB1.x. 3.1 looks and feels awfully utilitarian in comparison - but you could always change
them too I suppose.
And yes, 3.5/3.9 rocks as a desktop. My fav for sure.
Slightly off-topic, but since someone else mentioned WB2.x, I was wondering something.
I used that OS for a very brief time, but recall the stopwatch/busy pointer being animated.
Was that an add-on or a feature of the OS?
