Quite true for Windows 3.1, 3.11 95, 98. [i.e. NOT an OS]
Not true NT3.51, NT4.0, 2000, 2003. [i.e. Validly called an OS]
Debatable for XP, ME
Um, XP is based on 2000. It's the only really "stable" (I put that in
quotes because my system has been teetering on the brink of oblivion for
the past week...I just have too many open windows going to conveniently
reboot) release of Windows so far.
ME is definitely a pile of shit.
W2K is your best bet for a semi stable gates sourced O/S. If you want to
play games,
It's your only option for now ;-)
