Every other version of Windows. It's practically a law of nature at this point.

XP was terrible until sp2 and in fact so insecure that people all over the world got infected by all kinds of shit.

People forgot or are too young to remember, but XP needed several "service packs" before it was good.

I'm one of the weirdos that like ME... sure, I reformatted a few times. But i liked it!

Seems like they're on track to break the streak with Windows 12.

Exception: 95 and 98

98 Second Edition was 'da bomb at the time :) Much more stable than Win95, and not yet phoning home like XP. I get nostalgic seeing the splash screen.

After that, I switched to Win2K, as the last windows that did not phone home - and then straight to Linux, a decision I have never regretted and will never regret.
