It's ok Dusty. We all know if you made a 2nd 'undercover' account it would be PomZ
I've just made a couple of the folks on my IT team move to Windows 8.1. They both hated it the first day - and it's been growing on them. It definitely requires either training or a willingness to research and experiment.
I also remember when everyone who had to use it hated Windows 7.
Win7 was a welcome relief after that disaster they called Vista.
Honestly I don't know anyone who ever hated Windows 7. Windows Vista? definitely. Windows 8 is a transitional O.S and because of that too many compromises were made. I know some people will like it just like they did Vista, but I am not one of them. I have not checked out Mavericks yet, I still need to update the Macbook Pro.
Ditto. Vista was one of the worst ones they released that ever took hold.
I recall the big hullabaluu over win 95...........clic the "start" to begin

.........then again I recall, nope.... lost it !!! neber mind
That reminds me of a joke from that era:
God calls Boris Yeltsin, Bill Clinton & Bill Gates to his office. "I've called you three important men here to deliver some grave news. The world is going to end in 3 days. Go back & tell your people."
Yeltsin goes back to Russia, "Russians, I have some bad news & some worse news. First off, we were wrong, there is a god & secondly the world is going to end in 3 days. Go prepare yourselves."
Clinton goes back to the US, "Americans, I have some good news & some bad news. First, we were right, there is a god & secondly the world is going to end in 3 days. Go prepare yourselves."
Gates goes back to Microsoft, "Microsoft, I have some great news & some even better news! First, God thinks I'm important! Second, after all these delays, we don't have to release 95!!"
I never liked XP as much as many people did though it was never really the O.S. itself that I didn't like, just a lot of memory-leaky-software written for it.
As to Windows 95, I used it back in the day because some of my games required it, that was the only reason. It crashed a lot.

Windows 98 SE was much better. I skipped Millennium, heard it was pretty awful.
XP had that same effect as Vista to Win7. 95 was bad, 98 was a bit better, but XP actually worked... most of the time.
