Every two windows version is a disaster. 95 nice, 98 sucked, XP was great, vista was a flop, 7 wow, 8 eurk, 10 marvelous, 11 is shit... They don't learn. But this time the goal is to make more money through adds, widgets and preinstalled bloatware.

98 sucked, ME also sucked, 2000 wasn't too bad, XP was excellent

ME would like a word.

95 was middling just novel, OSR2 was actually good. 98 was ok, 98se was excellent ME was a complete unmitigated disaster 2000 was excellent in all shapes XP was horrid, SP2 was good

The rest about right but honestly i think it's just that the second SP is when Windows gets good, not that every second one is good.

And there was no saving ME or 8...
