      98/XP/7 was a glorious time. Then they decided way too late that they wanted to be tabletgardenwalledadmachines.

      Not on fucking hardware i built you don’t.

          95 was fuckin’ revolutionary back in the day. Quickly became old man yelling at cloud tho.

              I think you’re mixed up a bit. 98 was the unfinished beast, that’s why 98SE

                I Beta tested 98 and was shocked that they cut the gold release when they did, they were still fixing showstoppers pretty regularly at that point during development.

                I remembering loving Windows 2000. Where’s the love for 2000? It’s probably because that’s when I started really getting into things, and by that I mean looking at porn (12-13 years old), and so I needed to figure out how to unfuck my parents computer many, many times.

                  2k was a server build primarily, so to put it on a desktop you were already talking to people who knew what the fuck they were doing. It was pretty damned solid. I also have a fondness for 2k8.

                  2k12 just pisses me off because it’s win10 in a stupid hat making server noises. Get that shit out of a production environment
