[Fuzzy Dunalap]

That's your opinion.


Allow me to fix this list for you.

Win 3x. Good for it's time
Win 95. Game changing and decent
Win 98. Better
Win 98SE. Better still
Win ME. Great
Win 2k. Good
Win XP. Excellent
VistaRTM. Bad
Vista SP1. Reasonable
Vista SP2. Good
Windows 7. GOAT version of Windows
Windows 8. Garbage
Windows 8.1. Recycled garbage
Windows 10. Refined recycled garbage
Windows 11. Much better than Windows 10
Windows 12. Non-existant as of yet

There you go.

This person Windows!

Hahaha you said ME was good. Seriously it wasn’t called “many errors” edition for nothing.

No, I said it was Great! You clearly never used it. It ran better than Win98.

Windows releases really has a bloat and streamline phase.

vista was bloated with visuals way too ambitious, driver issues galore.

7 was good, back to basic, it just works.

8 was bloated with the next hot thing: tablets and mobile, fancy looks.. most of the basic things were changed to accommodate the "new market"

10 was good, back to basic, it just works.

11 is bloated with AI, online integration, things to accomodate a "new market" requirements for hardware making old systems obsolete.

prediction for Windows 12: is going to be good, it just works, back to basics.

Windows 10 was the worst Windows after Millenium Edition, Windows 11 is amazing, Windows 12 will be AI nightmare, will keep 11 untill its support ends
