[QUOTE=Ezhik;26433315]I removed Vista after CS1.6 started getting 10 fps and Flash froze every time I moved an object.[/QUOTE] user error
:love: 3.1
2000, xp and 7 have got to be my favourites.
[QUOTE=Jaehead;26416839][img_thumb]http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/9486/capturenc.png[/img_thumb] lol[/QUOTE] Comodo, Microsoft Security Essentials, etc. So many free and relatively good anti-virus software. Plus, crashes, although annoying and tedious to handle, can be fixed. I hate idiots. Windows 7 is a great operation system. I'm glad I upgraded.
Oh man, 3.1. That takes me back. Windows 98, I still remember that taking out a floppy while it was still in use triggered a bluescreen. Or the "This program has performed an illegal operation" dialog.
[QUOTE=Blackcomb;26431493]I always become confused when I hear people say that Vista sucks. I used it right when it came out and for two years after that, and I'm actually still using it today on my laptop, and I've never had a single problem. Performance was always great and was just increased & refined with the service packs. It was never sluggish and I really noticed no difference between it and Windows 7 except for the GUI.[/QUOTE] I've always had a select few problems with one of my laptops that ran Vista, disconnected from the network often, streamed videos poorly, while my much older laptop running XP did everything better than it. That being said, the computer I'm using right now is running Vista 64 bit. And I'm loving it so far, although a week of use isn't much to go by... But no problems, runs great.
[QUOTE=caesium;26434415]"This program has performed an illegal operation"[/QUOTE] When I was little and that came up I thought the army was going to burst through the front door.
[QUOTE=Shining_Sabe;26429098]XP wasn't really fat at all[/QUOTE] By 2001 standards, yes it was really fat.

My cousin had an extra copy of Vista lying around, didn't want to pay another 200 or so for 7, on top of what it already cost for the computer, and what it will cost for a new monitor.
3.11 was the first one I used IIRC.
[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;26440993]By 2001 standards, yes it was really fat.[/QUOTE] So were Vista and 98 compared to XP and 95. Most of the time when operating systems come out, they have higher requirements than previous ones. It's just that like Vista, whenever it came out, idiots tried to use it on very old systems - and you can't do that for a major revision.
Blah, I miss the look of Vista.

[QUOTE=SilentOpp;26449987]Blah, I miss the look of Vista.[/QUOTE] I prefer the Vista Beta UI. 5212/5219. Those were the best.

An old Netbook I had had ME on it. Started crashing to fuck, and we kept it clean and stuff. Formatted, installed XP, BAM awesomeness
Most recent one I recall from the pictures is Win95
