Are you a new OS X user? If so, you'll (probably) find that you get 
used to <cmd><shift><n> quickly. You might also try putting a new 
folder icon in the shelf at the top of brushed metal Finder windows.

If you're using 10.2.8 (Jaguar), you're unlikely to have to deal with 
any new versions. So, if you really can't bear the 'new' way, go ahead 
and look for a way to modify the default behavior. I'd start at 
macosxhints.com.

If you're using Panther (10.3.8), I wouldn't bother making a change. 
The chances are whatever modification you make will be undone by the 
next update.
