Are we considering 8.1 actually distinct from 8, or merely the equivalent of the old service packs? Because even on MS's "good" releases, it wasn't until Windows 98 SE that '98 got good. And it took Windows XP until Service Pack 2 before it was good enough to upgrade from '98.
- orionblastar 12y agoIt is like Windows 8.1 is both a service pack and new OS version. You can call it a service pack if you wish but Microsoft stopped using service packs with Windows 8 and made 8.1 instead which is a free upgrade for 8.
