	It's not so much the 'look and feel' as the stability, i.e. controls don't move around in
the control center, so we don't have to re-learn everything with each release, there are
few gratuitous changes 'just because', etc.; and one doesn't have to drill down through
four or five layers of menus to adjust a seldom-changed option.
	I have noticed that there seem to be quite a few TDE commands that don't have entries in
the TDE menu, so I only find out about them by accident...
