quote [ The Windows Console's colors are getting their first overhaul in more than 20 years! Hurray! The default color values have been changed to improve legibility of darker colors on modern screens, and to give the Console a more modern look & feel. ]
Unless something is done to stop them, Teal (aka DARK_CYAN) — originally RGB(0,128,128) — will be changed to a light Blue-de-France-esque garbage color — RGB(58,150,221). Write your congressman before it's too late!
Original vs. New:
 (Compare with Blue de France, the closest named blue to the new one.) More about Teal. You can blame intern Craig Loewen for this fiasco! The dream of the '90s has died.

When I first used Windows, Windows For Workgroups as it was then, I spent a long time experiencing all the different colour, screen savers and screen saver options.
Those were simpler times.

Then a version came with a free Weezer video. I didn't get around to watching that though.
