Thanks for the head’s up on Windows 11 Eric. You’re too funny with the ‘how it looks’ comment!
I saw a article somewhere talking about how M$ borrowed ideas from Apple, Gnome and KDE. Wish they would make the start menu look like KDE’s menu.
I liked the KDE 3.5 start menu and when using KDE these days I use the Classic version.
