Could have been worse, he could have installed Vista
8 was worse. At least Vista looked like Windows instead of being some weird phone OS hybrid where I couldn’t find anything until I installed a third-party start menu. A start menu!
Vista with updates was also shockingly stable. 7 on launch was really just Vista with a new taskbar skin.
Found the Win Me fan.
Not even close. Vista wasn’t a straight-up middle finger to desktop users. Well, not by M$ standards anyway.
Windows ME

This post is so old that the first time I saw it Windows 8.1 was still rolling out
Windows 8 was pretty bad, but you could at least still use desktop mode just fine with a quick settings fix.
Fucking windows 11 took top, left, and right taskbar from us and then locked all the threads asking for it back, and prevented the registry hack to at least get top taskbar back.
Windows 8 was fine
I’m holding out on my work laptop until they force me to “upgrade”
What about Windows ME?
Too dangerous. No safe word can save you from windows ME.
The safe word is
Just need to remove “8” from that message.
Not even the worst Windows
I read it in Ayoade’s voice lol
Could have been Gentoo.
I thought 8 was ok… 8.1 was the best 8, which changed a few of the annoying things and made it fine. I agree with the other person here, this should be Vista.
