It's a nitpick, but you left out WIN2k, which would break your pattern... It was actually a very solid OS from my experience.

- Karunamon 15y agoSo I've heard- but my thoughts at the time (as a mostly ignorant kid) were than Win2k was too business focused for gaming. Keep in mind, I didn't even have internet access until 1999! Went straight from 98 to XP, buying ME and then taking it back after finding out that it broke EVERYTHING.
- yuhong 15y agoTo be honest, MS did indeed intend to target Win2000 at businesses and WinMe at home users, though Win2000 actually have good DirectX support unlike NT4.
