The history of Mac is an OS that never had a real UI change, just a few added features here and there.
Windows XP will still be my all time favorite OS. Not even XP Mode in Windows 7 runs so many classic games and new games perfectly with such a simple and undemanding UI. I have never seen a better Windows OS upgrade.
My grandma's awesome old computer had Windows 98 i kinda admit i liked it. She lost her apartment. Now she lives in my aunt and uncles house. I miss her apartment and old Windows 98 computer
I need help! evo my windows does not download things, try to download gta san andreas the game but let me try to download Ares but do not let me! there is a message that says: its current configuration does not allow downloading of this file I need help !!!!!!
I used Windows 3.10 386 enhanced, Windows ME (Could only see the desktop), Xp Home edition and proffesional, Vista Home Premium, 7 Home Premium and Ultimate.
I have used the following versions: Windows 1.01, Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11, Windows 98, Windows 98 2nd Edition (not much different), Windows XP, Windows Longhorn, Windows Vista, Windows 7.
man I just installed Windows 98 on an old ThinkPad I got free a week ago, and man it reminds me of how much these OS's blue-screened in the past! I think I've gotten at least 20 blue screens already trying to install updates and drivers. I love my XP and Longhorn though!
Interesting how technology looks really top notch when it first comes out, then, after a couple of years it's "Windows vista is rubbish", get the update etc. and suddenly the computer you've got runs at the speed of a snail and looks archaic. Such is technology.
@hardstyle905 Mine isn't. Had a technician re-install windows which improved it a bit but it's not perfect. How did you keep yours in good condition? Do you know any good safe sources for themes for XP? The existing lacks the appearance of vista/7.
@tardiskeeper6 Frankly I'm not using any themes at all, at the moment at least. I have the Classic design on right now. When it gets boring I do use StyleXP occasionally though.
But I do like the Classic one. Reasons are: simplicity, being much faster (even on a Core 2 Duo there is a difference), and well....it doesn't distract you with all kinds of fancy colors and bells and whistles....but I know that's not for everyone.
@tardiskeeper6 Couple that with XP-AntiSpy, disabling a few unnecessary services, installing Windows on its own drive (like C: for Windows and all your stuff goes on D:).
And then XP is simply unbeatable for stability and speed. :)
I often leave my pc running for weeks and weeks....without a single issue.
@tardiskeeper6 I meant drive as in partition. Sorry, my fault. If you make 2 partititions the first one will be C and the other D and then your CD drive will automatically be E...
It kind of sucks that Vista is the big finale, considering how it eventually turned out. As a computer history nerd I still appreciate this vid, though the constant zooming and panning made me cross-eyed.
@Valeriater Lolz I notisted that. And shut up windows hater! the operating system you choose depends on you! It's like a favorite color. nothing is better than the other. It relies solely on personal preference. Now, Windows had color first! =P =DDDDDD
It's Amazing to see the User Interface/Desktop of Windows Improve over time, From Windows 1.0 (25 years ago) to Windows 7. (current) Just think what it will look like in another 25 years from now.
from what I see here, Windows continued to be ugly up until windows XP. 2000 was mostly just gray, which didn't help. Then in Vista and 7, they started doing things with their windows that Mac did suck as shadows and hotkey organization. And it took them until windows 7 to get built in anti-virus. My comp genius friend says it only causes more problems.
I'll stick with Mac. But this was still a very interesting video. 4/5. Very well done.
@ymilner16 this video was made on the day of 27 November 2006, windows 7 was released in 2010 and announced in 2009. What did you expect? a medal for pointing that out?
one crap after the other. Maybe XP was the only reasonable one. I had Win Me before... what a junk... and Vista? well.. do i need to say anything about it?
well, Windows 95,98, and 2000 were pretty good ones to use. ME and Vista were most likely the only major major mistakes that Microsoft made with windows
I'm using it about 5 years and every time with next release of any distribution comes something new. Sometimes in just few days, sometimes in few months.
@daniellynet Mac has different hotkeys for that, and it's called force quit, which you can do by right clicking on the icon in the dock, and it's much better than stupid "end task" which could take anywhere from 30 seconds to 30 minutes to end something.
BTW, the Ctrl for mac is simply called Command. If you can't figure that out, you don't deserve a Mac.
CTRL+ALT+DEL is there because Windows lags and you must terminate stupid proccesses. I use Windows 7, it's great and I've used 10.6 OS X Snow Leopard too. You are such an idiot.
lookin at old windows reminds me the netscape bug. netscape keep freezing up and my bro ask me what happen. i was like "idk", removing netscape cache files did fix the problem tho.
