Windows XP had a perfectly nice "classic" skin.

You are clearly too young to remember the rage people had back then.

WinXP was "Busy" compared to Win98. Those who wanted busier, more colorful schemes could always install a color pack or customize their windows as appropriately.

WinXP released with basically one colorpack, and removed the option of going back to the older "classier" gray look from Win98 / Win95.
