Why is this the Windows 95 logo with the XP name photoshopped in?
XP was an unmitigated disaster at release it got better tho.
I think Windows peaked with 7. The last time that you felt like the upgrade was worth it or at least not a step backwards.
I’m almost at the point where if my company gets me a high-end subscription to an AI system, I’m just gonna backport all of the security updates to 7 and start rocking it again.
Agree although I loved XP. 10 wasn’t terrible in the end, and 11 is a shit show
10 was ugly IMO and it turned the anti-consumer bullshit up to 11
I will say that 7 lacks the cool retro flavor that XP had, but maybe that’s just because lots of Linux UI looks about as old as 7 (Cinnamon being the biggest “offender”).
Yeah, I was going to say 7 as well.
This is exactly right. I suffered through vista, loved the hell out of 7, and right as 8 came out, someone offered me an iMac for cheap. Started learning OS X and when 8 came out and I saw what was going on, I never went back.
I still talk with folks about what an unmitigated security disaster it was prior to SP2.
Why XP and not 2000?
CEMENT
NT and Windows 7…things just worked.
No '95, 2K and ME.
No Windows 10
