Windows 9??

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.
Dos was invented in a board room off of nothing before bill gates bought an operating system for $50,000 and then called it dos, and he only did so after he changed the OS to suit IBM. Windows 1 and Apple (I forget what the original windowed OS was called) were both stolen from Xerox. That doesn't change the fact that is was Microsoft first OS.

Errm, you said it was Bill Gates' first OS. Considering that they bought it, and Paul Allen was responsible for most of the integration, Gates actually had very little to do with it.

none of which exist --- just like Windows 9!!! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Windows OneCore 2016? Windows 8 2012 Windows 7 2009 Windows Vista 2006 Windows XP 2003
3.0 in 1990 3.1 in 1992 NT in 1993* 95 in 1995 NT4 in 1996 98 in 1998 2000 in 2000 *) beginning of the 32-bit era, with FreeCell available on Windows 3.1/win32s. Before that, I did not use Windows. The Amiga had a full multitasking Windowed-environment, and the OS fitted in a quarter of a megabyte. Imagine running Windows from memory.

Nah I'm bored, without intellectual stimulation there's no reason to go on.
As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

This is what has your undies in a bunch? Time to re-prioritize I think.

It was actually his second if you count that ticker tape OS that ran that machine of dots. He owned the company that is all that matters.

I can't wait for windows to run strictly in memory again.

Well then you seem to get stimulation extremely easy if that's the only thing that keeps you going and have gotten this far.

That's pretty obvious since I'm still chatting with you. Everybody else quite playing?

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.
If I had time (l might shortly) I would but would any of the skills learned be of any use? Other than you can do X quicker I wonder. ...

I shudder to think what you would do in the face of something important.

Everything that could be important with every possible outcome has already been thought of, the world is just a chess game.

No, it's not all that matters. You appear to have the ability to throw your voice so that it sounds like you're talkin' outa your ass, because every one of your utterances have a healthy coat of sh*t.

Thank you. I was gonna correct him, and you got there first. He probably thinks the holocost didn't happen, too, or that we didn't land on the moon, or that Obama is a U.S. citizen.
