The history of Windows repeat?

Remember the frustration created by Windows Vista? Windows 7 saved the day. The user experience of Windows 8 may not be as bad as Vista but is not as positive as Windows 7 either. Is Windows 9 going to save the day?

Don't think of them as bad and good... Think of them as Beta and RTM. Windows Vista was a Beta product, and Windows 7 was the RTM version. Windows 8 is the next Beta, and Windows 9 will be the RTM. Microsoft has just gotten a little confused in recent years... They can't tell the difference between an end user and a beta tester anymore.

Windows 7 and Xp were almost identical. Win8 would also have had a great reception if it had been a clone of Win7. People demand new but do not like changes, that's it.

Interesting enough that Microsoft likes to change graphic interface drastically more than the functionality.

Windows is and never will be a finished product. It always evolves; but never in a straight line; sometimes it backtrack or sidesteps.
I'd rather be phishing!

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)How do you define recent years? To me it seems that they have always done that.

People usually don't demand very much at all. Mickeysoft usually tries to tell everybody what they should demand so that they have a reason to release a new version.
