Correct, it's a deprecated attribute.

You don't have much control over how your site will be rendered on the
client side. You don't even know if it will be displayed in something
that could be called a window at all, HTML simply doesn't care about
such things. So why bother? Let the user decide and that's it.

Of course you could use Transitional or a JavaScript to open the window,
but that would be a step back.
