I loved this style, thought it was so sleek when it launched. I spent way too many hours editing my family pc to get custom colored aero windows and custom start menu buttons.

Same. It's a running addiction of mine on every gadget
I didn’t end up using much of Windows 8/10/11, but every time I do I keep thinking Windows 7 was their last, best system
I do remember how everything just worked and looked great. The glowing accents on the Taskbar look great to this day. Windows 10 wasn't too bad either, but it has some of the confusion of W8 in it
I remember being a young dumb kid and downloading a program that would turn my Windows XP theme into a Vista theme. It worked, but I didn't understand at the time that my computer was way too crappy to even think about running something like that. Good times, man.
