Which means 8 will be worse than Vista... That's a scary thought.
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

Actually, XP was bad. Very bad. People tend to forget that it was awful until it was fixed as part of SP3 which, ironically, had a really negative effect on Vista.
Forgive your enemies - it messes with their heads

2000 was from the server branch, not the consumer products branch. IMHO, everything in the server line from NT 3.51 onward was great. True, a lot of NT guts were used in XP onward, but what we're talking about here is the UI in the consumer line of products.

Nah, Win2k was part of the NT line... 98 --> Me --> XP --> Vista -- 7 NT4 --> 2000 --> 2003 --> 2008

Yeah, no kidding... When did "using a computer" start to mean "taking pictures, browsing YouTube, and posting on Twitter"? Two things I do infrequently, and one that I've never done.

At least no more than any other Windows shell that any competent Windows developer could dream up an write. What am I missing here :confused:

XP and later are also NT. The 9x codebase was put out of its misery after winme.
3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18
Yeah, they share a codebase, but they're still separate product lines, and I don't know if the odd/even rule applies to the server lines.

When I saw news few months back that Windows 8 will be using Metro UI, I was hoping for rumor... but that was true. I cant believe they are using Metro UI for mainstream OS. I though they just figure it out that they cant use mainstream OS UI on mobile OS, but now who is going to make them understand that reverse way is even worse. Let's hope that you can change the theme back to Windows Aero. Mainstream OS UI should provide basic interface for client apps, and not tightly integrated apps inside UI as services... even if this is just for consumer version, They are trying to make users dumb after trying too hard to make them smart enough to use windows 98.
It's a shame that stupidity can't be converted into a usable energy source.
