I'm unreasonably upset that They list it as Bellsouth rather than its original name, South Central Bell.

Unless you spin off Youtube along with the ad business into their own company, YouTube dies. It is in no way self-sufficient without the ad network that literally supports it.

XP did have a 64-bit version, but at the time 64-bit wasn't widely used.

Vista's major problem was that it released during a time that the PC industry was racing to the bottom in terms of pricing. All those initial Vista machines were woefully inadequate for the OS they ran. 1-2GB RAM, which was perfectly fine for XP, was pathetic for Vista, yet they sold them anyway. If you bought a high-end machine, you likely had a pretty decent experience with Vista. If you bought a random PC at Walmart? Not so much.

Win2k was (largely) the end of MS producing DOS-based operating systems (with XP being the final nail in that coffin)

Win2k and WinXP were not built on DOS. They were not DOS-based. They were NT-based. ME was the final nail in that coffin.

12 will very likely just be 11. They don't do OS development like they used to. Windows is essentially now an OS that gets DLC every 6 months.

Streaming live TV. Think YoutubeTV or Hulu Live or Fubo

There's literally a drama that was on ABC called, you guessed it, "How to Get Away With Murder"
