Old gnome is nostalgic to me, because my first venture into Linux was Fedora Core 4. I was still using Win98 at the time, and gnome 2.10 felt so modern in comparison, with rounded corners and soft gradients.
Coming back to Linux after having not touched it for a very, very long time I tried gnome again and I just do not like it at all. It's weird looking. Maybe too modern for me, i don't know.
If you miss GNOME 2 try MATE. It is a continuation of GNOME 2.
I'll check that out, thanks! It does look nice. I have two PCs with Mint with Cinnamon, I'm pretty happy with. I have one more PC to switch over to Linux, I'll probably try MATE on that.
