I think it’s just another example of humor in general that warbler doesn’t get and he’s hiding behind it being British to help distract from the numbers.
=P just ribbing warb.

Because Windows Vista is considered a particularly bad operating system in tech circles. And he can’t move because he’s scared, I guess.
I would think Windows 8 would fit more here.
8 wasn’t out yet.
Also, the general consensus is every other Windows OS sucks. 95 sucked; 98(SE) was good; Millennium sucked; XP was good; Vista sucked; 7 was good; 8 sucked; 10 is good.
But of those, Millennium and Vista are particularly bad. 8’s UI might have been horrible, but Millennium and Vista were resource hogs and frequently unstable.
chyron just put a big Ric pic in your sig and be done with it.

Once they added in the patch that brought the “windows” back to Windows, 8 was perfectly fine.

ClassicShell was really useful for Windows 8 (having a Start Button and familiar UI Menu system / easy access to desktop screen etc) - and not at all embarrassing for those at Microsoft who said that it couldn’t be done at the time…
(I think the lad behind ClassicShell knocked it out days after the Windows 8 release too 😃)

Windows 95 sucked? I don’t remember that. I also don’t remember Vista sucking, but that is probably because I never used it, I went right fro XP to Windows 7, and I didn’t use 7 long before switching to 10. Happened to 9?

4 words: Blue. Screen. of Death.

There is a reason for that. Vista was basically what amounts to a retail open beta for 7. That’s not an exaggeration. I’ve read articles detailing the development history of why Vista is objectively broken and extremely similar to 7.
Happened to 9?
Word is that Microsoft wanted to distance 10 from 8. They didn’t want people to assume 10 was the next logical step from 8, but a new idea entirely, so they skipped 9. Apparently the #'s “7”, “8” and “10” don’t mean anything. They’re just numerical names akin to using “XP”.

Also: compatibility. Old applications would look for the person “Windows 9” and assume you were running Windows 95 or 98. MS wanted to avoid that too.
Also: y’all should use Macs.

Yeah when the OS is consistently shitty you don’t notice when it’s bad. Thanks Apple for making that easier for all of us! MAC really is better!

Windows 95 was great, it set the framework for all future releases. It was Windows 98 that was kind of stunk, kind of a pointless OS. The way I see it is like this:
EARLY WINDOWS
Windows 1.0 - Bad
Windows 2.0 - Better
Windows 3.0 - Good
Windows 3.1x - Great
MODERN WINDOWS
Windows 95 - Great
Windows 98 - Bad
Windows 98SE - Good
Windows ME - Awful || Windows 2000 - Great
Windows XP - Great
Windows Vista - Awful
Windows 7 - Great
Windows 8 - Awful
Windows 8.1 - Okay
Windows 10 - Bad
Wait, why is this in this thread…?
