Indeed, Windows 7 still gets my vote for the best Windows ever. Only the lack of security patching stops me using it now. If I had the budget for a 24/7 server/dedicated firewall, I'd happily still use it.Unless there's a "7" in it.
And surely Windows 8put paid to the bad odd numbered concept
Well the suggestion that odd-numbered versions were to be avoided didn't necessarily endorse even-numbered versions.
Come to that, Windows 5 (aka XP) wasn't that bad.
That would be no good to me as I have a very large folder of site reports named 'idiotswhocantreadinstallationmanualsoruseaspiritlevel'I'm still waiting for 3.1 to make a comeback. Who needs file names with more than eight characters?
To be strictly correct 3.11 as 3.1 was patched very quickly after release. Bit confused on the numbering as if XP was 5, 95 and 98 were presumably 4 and 4.? but that still leaves ME, 2000 and Vista with only 6. Was ME a 4.?, vista 6 and 2000 excluded?I'm still waiting for 3.1 to make a comeback. Who needs file names with more than eight characters?
My son has just rebuilt, some i9 ir other, 10-core 20-thread gaming monster!
MS say a 1ghz 2 core cpu will do the job! But that with old RAM and a hard disk would be annoyingly slow.
Too true. I put one in an old laptop recently, with extra RAM free win 10 upgrade from win 7, all for 40 quid. Huge difference.
