Am I behind the times with old stuff, or does the brightest and newest of Macs offerings still have this problem. (I am using Mac OSX, version 10.3.7)

You may enjoy moving up to 10.3.9, as it does everything a bit better (really!) but do not go to 10.4 as everything you hate about the mew UNIX Macs is worse.

Solution: Go back to OS9.1! I wish I could but new computer programs will not work on it. Or keep the old one and give up new things - that would be cheaper too!

Why they have ro make computers look like catoons and animated toys is far beyond me. I'm over fifty and appreciate subtle elegance, not garish seethru plastic junk.. And the gall they have to not even allow us to have a choice!

I will stop before i rant, with this last comment: Why O why do people who sell used computers think they have to put the newest fake-O operating system on old Macs? I put a new drive in my G4 so I could at least stay with 10.3.9...

I  miss window shades. Actually, if stuff would
stay where I put it, I'd like to have both the window shades feature and the dock.
Each offers something the other does not.

Anyone have a solution for this nuisance factor?
