I would disagree. I feel xp was the last good windows. After that it all went to shit.
Funny you say that. I did tech support when XP first came out, and I quit my job and switched to Linux.
XP SP2 was actually pretty good though.
You mean Windows 2000?
You mean whatever one you first used and have an unhealthy nostalgia for. I mean Windows 98.
You mean 98SE
Give me Windows 95 with Microsoft Plus!
Nah, Windows 3.11 is peak
You say that until you think back and TCP/IP wasn't a native protocol so you had to use and configure something like Trumpet Winsock for your SLIP or PPP connection. Dark days, man.
Man Microsoft plus was awesome. I used to stare at the foucault pendulum for hours when I was a kid.
3.11. So good you had to type WIN to fuck your PC.
The first version of Windows I used was 2.0. NT was a huge improvement over the DOS based ones, but things started to go downhill with XP.
This is the right question, it was the last 100% NT kernel before 9x ruined everything.
