This one works well. I think it's because there's no shine to it, it's just the data, what you need, right there without trying to fluff it all out with rounded edges and superfluous stuff.
The opposite, to change it into the modern version remove all borders and make all backgrounds the same color.

Well yes, but if I wanted a completely flat lifeless page I would just use excel and turn off borders.
