Windows Aero (transparent window borders, etc.) is dead.. Good riddance

Oh, I hate that blue and orange menace! The first thing I always did was change it to "classic" mode.
Carol Haynes:
I think the real reason MS want to dump Aero is so that Metro doesn't look completely pants (it still does in my opinion but if you have a nice looking desktop it actually makes Metro look even worse).
PS: I hate the classic start menu - much prefer XP, Vista and 7 start menus.

Orange? :huh:
I only remember it being blue, except the red X button of course. And since blue is my favorite color... I like it. :)

I stand corrected. I had a memory of the red X button being orange, but I guess it was just the gloss on the red making it a little lighter.

I Just drop the border thickness from (the default) 4 to 2-Stoic Joker (May 22, 2012, 12:51 PM)

How do you do that? I haven't messed with border thickness settings before, but when I go into the settings it's already at 1, and it still seems to be pretty thick.
