    True, but at least with DOS if you knew what you wanted you could do. No as user friendly but you hit the metal near enough! :) ...

    If you know what you are doing in Windows 8, you can do things that you didn't even know where possible, so go to Microsoft Virtual Academy and learn about Windows 8, instead of talking out your ass.

        Oh no... CSS has returned to the forums... I thought he was banished to the Back Room and eventually scared off... I'll have to start another quotables thread...

            No, it wasn't. The pre 95 versions of Windows were a graphics shell which ran on top of DOS - it was DOS with a pretty face and memory management. 95 was different - and better - because it wasn't DOS based.

            DOS was Bill gates first OS, next came Windows 1 and Windows 2, but the public didn't pick it up until windows 3.11 What you said just reinstates what I was saying thank you.

                    No it wasn't. Microsoft bought DOS. It had nothing to do with Bill Gates. Perhaps you would care to share some more of your revisionist history.

                                Windows 9 could exist But it will only exist when the words come out of a Microsoft employees mouth. Windows Threshold does exist.

                                        Stop posting shit like you know what you're talking about.

                                        If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                                        You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
                                        Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein
