anyone else miss microsoft XP

| I sure fuckin do


| Man, I miss that Pinball game so much


| >>246265 My literal early childhood was this and Mario kart on the n64 emulator alongside hundreds of other games, pirating Trojans and crappy edm songs in Ares and trying to play doom on my PC.


| ahh the good ol pinball


| No, not really. Win95/98, yeah.
3.11 for Workgroups was an okay guy, too.


| OG Windows Movie Maker, anyone? Damn near all I did in middle school was make shitty videos and slideshows with it.


| I miss the GUI, the OS itself not so much.


| The color scheme is way better than 10's.


| All of those are valid opinions. But remember the paper clip win xp was the last time he was featured


| Good ol clippit who everyone miss remembers as Clippy


| >>246627
>Win95/98
Yeah, I definitely miss those days a lot more than XP.

I do keep an old Pentium II based HP workstation in the corner for rainy days. Can probably find one in a thrift store.
Won't be decking on it, but hey Mechcommander and Hunter Hunted.


| I miss win7 too man, win10is garbage


| To an extent I say I miss winXP. I have used it for a very long time and it did a decent job for its time and era, it built a standard on how things were done, where things were found, what the settings meant, how to change them, how drivers were installed or uninstalled. Even to this day we all compare these features with what win7 and win10 have and dislike them the more they are different from XP. Because in the end, changing the UI is always a bad idea.


| >>250456 wait is Win7 that old? I'm still using it to this day


| My dad owned his own government contracting buisness doing IT work. they would always call windows xp, "windows extreme pain".


| >>251027
Yea Win7 is old hat. Was good, bloated garbage now. When you've had that many patches and updates, it's time for something fresh for the sake of performance.
>>251034
I feel that; as much as I loved the familiarity, working on it after the Vista era was awful.
RIP and good riddence, XP. Was good times for awhile.


| Only for the old games, I'm using Linux now, it's MUCH better than Winblows.
