You are not alone. You literally have to pay me to use a Microsoft Windows device and I'm not cheap. I was such a Windows fanboy in the late 90's early 2000's

You are not alone. You literally have to pay me to use a Microsoft Windows device and I'm not cheap.
I was such a Windows fanboy in the late 90's early 2000's when Win2k and Win XP were the platforms that were shipping.
Having lived through those days till now I'm convinced that Microsoft can never build a better user experience than Windows 2000 provided.
- raesene9 10y agoBetter is of course subjective, and I might suggest a hint of rose-tinted glasses there. I've been using Windows professionally since Windows 3.11 for Workgroups and whilst sure I miss some of the simplicity and cleanness of older versions, every time I actually have to use one of the old versions I'm constantly bumping into annoyances and missing features that I've gotten used to with Windows 10 One small but important, to me, example ie being able to resize command shell windows by dragging them! and easy copy/paste !
