Is this why they skipped 9?

Windows 8.1

Windows 8.1 is basically 9 because 8 + 1 = 9

actually:
>95 shit
>98 a bit better shit
>ME shit
>2000 great
>XP shit
>vista great & underrated
>7 overrated shit
>8 great
>8.1 great
And why is 2000 ahead of ME in your post?

oh, so in that case I guess all the service packs count too, right?

Fuck off, 98 was awesome

bait

sad truth people don't want to hear over anecdotal examples and myths

98SE was fine
2000 shouldn't be there because it wasn't the consumer version. It was only after ME that they used the NT kernel in consumer windows versions
>95: good
>98: shit
>98SE: good
>ME: total shit
>XP: good
etc

...
>8.1
decent
>10
shit

too bad there won't ever be an 11

2000 WAS consumer
XP WAS shit at least until SP2

This post is right. What's with winfags and being blinded by nostalgia?

From a technical standpoint, windows 2000 was the first time microsoft showed signs of making a decent operating system that didn't subscribe to the artificial server OS/desktop OS dichotomy, and then they went off road and kept dumbing it down and crippling the API for non-server users because false choices (pro edition, pleb edition) make more money, like selling the same car with two different programs on the ECU and a spoiler bolted on.

>this is a fucking toyota corolla
>no no its the corolla SPORT! racecar, bro.

With proprietary software you lose

samefag

No, back then the NT line was for servers and enterprise desktops, DOS line was for consumer.
It wasn't until XP and server 2003 that they split the NT line into desktop and server and did away with the DOS ones.

>someone doesn't judge operating systems based on their childhood memories
>must be the same poster

inb4 kek/pajeet

fucking pathetic desu senpai

(i actually type kek, desu, and senpai instead of letting the word filter do it for me :^))

2000 isn't a part of NT line
2000 is desktop, workstation and server at the same time.

they skipped 9 because fuckwits have code like this:

if (operating system name starts with "windows 9") {
// must be windows 95 or 96
}

lel
and don't tell me this is modified or anything, the other poster'd like to argue too

Vista SP3 was pretty good.

why not just call it windows Nine(tm)?

You are this retarded

Also
>Windows 2000 was first planned to replace both Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0. However, this changed later. Instead, an updated version of Windows 98 called Windows 98 Second Edition was released in 1999.

2000 is NT 5.0 dipshit

>Desu senpai

shitposter disreguarded

you are that retarded, fuck off

windows, nein

XP is NT 5.1
Vista is 6.0
7 is 6.1
8 is 6.2

Yes, XP is also NT, after they decided to use NT for all 3 areas.
Server went NT4 > 2000 > Server 2003
Enterprise desktop went NT4 > 2000 > XP
Consumer desktop went 98SE > ME > XP

All you are autists who are over thinking this shit.

There is no good release bad release then good again then bad again etc etc.

Just use Windows 7 OR Windows 10.
Both are good for what you need.

I disagree with the cycle. Vista was shit if you were running it on the same Windows 98 shitbox you installed Windows XP on, but otherwise it was essentially Windows 7 with a slightly different DE. As for Windows 8 it's got performance enhancements over Windows 7 and doesn't look as bad sans Metro start menu

Windows 8 > 7 AND 10.
Vista is better than 7, too.

Yup

>pic related

My weeb word memes are much better than your delusional
"old windows wus gud i used it when i was 8 and thot it wuz cool" meme.

desu not really, 2K was not marketed to consumers nor was it sold with consumer systems unless you ordered it that way

pretty much every consumer box, even early Pentium 4 systems shipped with ME by default

Because leebin windows 9x compatibility

I was 16 when 98 came out...

calm down, grandpa

Where the fuck do you live? Some 3rd world country? I have shitloads of computers with Windows 2000 stickers, from different OEM's.

>And why is 2000 ahead of ME in your post?
because it was released before, you fucking retard

>7 overrated shit
Hipster techie. Sevens great, admit it.

7 is a slightly worse version of vista. Not really bad, but way too overrated

as a normie user 7 is way better. i used vista everyday for 6-7 years and while it always got better it always was shit

98 was great you retard.
Vista was not shit, OEMs just fucked it with underspecced hardware.

I'm currently using 8 on my Intel atom, that should tell you how good it is.

Fucking moron, 3/10 made me reply.
Op is an underage retard who hasn't used anything before 7.

>7 is a slightly worse version of vista
>slightly
Agreed
Disagree.

7 is improved Vista and you know it

>It's a windows meme episode

no its not. Vista sucks.

Also, use windows 7 if you like xp vista type
and use win 10 if you like win 8 metro type.

simple, use win 7 or win 10 that is it!!!

Vista is just Windows 7 with a slightly different look

...

vista has performance issues that were fixed in win 7.

even if they look about the same to a normie, it has a lot of differences from a geeks point of view tbqhfam

That's the most retarded thing I've heard today

>7
>worse than vista
Top kek, 1/10, made me reply.

8 was actually great if you weren't a demented 60 y/o troglodyte, paralysed by change.

>8.x
>great
No fucking kill yourself

Windows 8 is fucking horrible.

7 sp1 Is literally just Vista SP3

10 is WAY better than 8 but not as good as 7 or Vista
