Is this a MX Question. AntiX already comes out with the taskbars located on the bottom.
I am going to move this thread to new users and questions also.

Yes, MX has the taskbar on the left.
And no, it does not have ICEWM either.

run $inxi -F and paste in the outcome.

Thats not unity. That is xfce 4.12 task bar.

Anyways. I think you need to watch some good movies so you learn what is going on.

Happy Trailz Rok.

I am in Icewm on my ancient IBM T23 so I will leave it to others to instruct you on moving the xfce 4.12 taskbar.
Since I am not on my MX box right now.

if you want antiX, be sure to download antiX-15 and NOT the mx-linux variant, which is what you have downloaded.

if you decide to keep MX, then open the menu and navigate to MX Panel Orientation,which will let you automatically switch the default panel to horizontal.

Are the traditional ones up-to date or they outdated?

They are up to date and still receiving updates. There is also a 15.1 alpha suggesting another release in the future.
