Yeah sure whatever
>>108174024this nigga read my thoughts
the Curse of Time is to watch generation after generation make the same mistakesI remember millennials asking this exact question in different meme words 10 years agoand 10 years before that with MS DOShug your loved ones all things go
>>108174048I don't see anyone asking this about W10 or 8 which are over 10 years old so...
>>108173990Vista had soul
I would say windows 7 was personally. 7 was actually built to be a good os, not JUST to make Microsoft money.
7 was last one that wasn't spyware.
8 had sovl.
>>108174206that is such a real opinion
>>108174204>>1081742067 was windows vista service pack 4, soulless by default>>108174209>gay tablet interface with flat design>soul
>thing from when i was a kid good>thing from later badsame as it ever was
>>108173990Vista had plenty of soul. 8 is when it started to become soulless since that was really just a Vista reskin.
>>108174133this
>>108173990No, it's Windows 7, the last version that supported the classic theme
>>108174334>8 is when it started to become soullessthat's when they decided that everything had to be a touchscreen, and the world wasn't really prepared to put up with that dumb shit
>>108175689Shit I forgot about touchscreen. I avoided laptops that were touchscreen back then come to think of it kek. All that tile stuff looked cool on Windows Phone but I hated it on the main OS.
posted it again award
>>108176319If you wanna be a fucktard why don't you come here and say it to my face so i can answer you with a swift fist to the nose.
>>108174260not true, when I was kid, computers were text mode only
>>108174048 vista
>>108173990>hourly etc
>>108173990I always hated Luna and used classic theme. I liked Aero though.
>>108173990I still use it alongzside 7, 10 and 2kpro XP ans 2KPro were the finest 32 bit operating systems ever made.
>>108174830i want to go back
>>108177821>I always hated Luna and used classic theme. I liked Aero though.I used classic on all of them with all effects disabled on performance..still do.
>>108177871then do. Peak XP is a 2tb drive, a gtx 750 ti and somthing like am e8400 core 2 duo, it will want a cd/dvd. That would all run on a 300 watt power supply I have on like that, it's greatThe last supported card in xp iis the gtx 970/980 and I have that in another xp/win 7.They are both on an offline lan and have stuff like visual studio 6, office xp, win32 sdk, office xp, and games like shogun total war, warcraft 3, shronghold, age of empires, close combat a bridge too far sim city societies and universe at war on them, all on ;llan multiplater and they have NAs access via SMB and offline wikepedia, the guttenberg library offline and a bunch of other stuff like MP3 and MP4 and PDF archives along with stuff like printing, scanning, USB joysticks, MS flight sim and combat flight sim, starlancer etc etc. If you like using it, use it. I do.
>>108173990Just left over remnants of soul from windows 2000.
>>108173990Notice how it's always XP (Win2k with a the most retarded WindowBlinds theme every created thrown across the top - but it came with every computer for years) or 7 (Vista with a Dock-alike lifted from macOS - but it came with every computer for years).Very telling - it's like these threads are made by children whining that computers aren't new and exciting anymore.Or more succinctly:>hourly baby duck cope thread
>>108174204This, 7 was the last good Microsoft operating system, 10 was shit but at least tolerable, especially when you debloat it and remove telemetry in it, 11 is the worst and I don't understand how anyone can use it.
>>108173990No? Was the 7, because the Win7 has much themes like the WinXP. And this, >>108174830.
>>108174204microsoft could've made the perfect OS with Windows 7 UI and the efficient kernel and driver changes of Windows 8
It was criticised as having the Teletubbies hill as the main wallpaper.
Reminder you can download OpenBSD and get a UI from the 1980s by default.
Windows 2000 was pretty underrated. Did not care for XP. Certainly not Vista. 7 was tolerable mostly because the world was moving on and I had no choice.8 was trash (it's wild how quick people have memory holed this horrid time in Windows history)8.1 was actually decent10 was meh (still as good as it gets), 11 is bad
>>1081739907 was the best middle ground between 2k and xp, xp just looked like an ugly toy. Still prefer 2k though.
>>108177928>e8400 core 2 duomofo bringing me back to my first real "gaming" setup. no idea if the mobo is still running but I'm pretty sure my hd4850 is still alive. Not so sure about the ddr2 though
Vista 7 10 and 11 where good after half a decade of updates eachAll windows is basically shit at launch
>>108180177>10 and 11>goodlol
>>108180213I've had zero issues with 10/11 on pcs with decent amounts of ssd ram and caches from launchI learned during the vista era windows hates being starved of vram especially
>>1081739902k was, xp was for soulless normalfaggots.
>>1081739908.1
sovl
>>108173990Vista had too much soul. That's why they had to kill it
>>10818017711 is still shit after half a decade of updates
Amiga ROM 1.3 kicked the shit out of any bollocks Microshit OS past or current. Now, fuck off.
Another thread full of good intentions but low effort posts...
>>108174204A while ago, someone on here compared W7 to a ford mustangBest way to describe it reallyIt just gets the damn job done, especially if you treat it well and change the oil every once in a while
>>1081739907 was fine, too.
>>108173990if my soul you mean that being connected to the internet means you got 10 viruses a day and half of those viruses corrupted your OS and caused it to enter a BSOD loop by accident, then yes, XP had LOTS of soul.
>>108180126ddr3 not 2
>>108181038>2k was, xp was for soulless normalfaggots.fair but they are basically the same OS
>>108188603Linuxfags in shambles
>linux out of fucking thin airObsession status?
>hurr durr sovlBack to the retirement home, gramps. Every other xpboomer eventually moved on to 7 and 10, and will be sucking the dick of 11 instead when 12 comes out.
>>108188644>>108188700The irony is that >>108188603 was taken by me while installing >>108184727, pic related.
