Yes, Windows 7. The last of MS's great OS.Need to fix the title of the thread to "Windows 7 just works..."
And just for the record based on my own experience of using the Windows operating system since pre-1.0 days so very long ago: most - and I do mean the overwhelming majority aka > 95% - of the errors that people do have when running Windows isn't with Windows itself meaning the core base OS but instead with third party drivers and software and there's a reason for that:
Because Windows is closed proprietary OS and only Microsoft itself truly knows every tiny last bit of the source code the best that outside developers could ever do is work with the info that Microsoft presents to them in terms of the APIs and HAL specs and they're on their own after that for writing drivers for the hardware that some manufacturers make and also software that some software developers make.
For that reason alone I would have to agree that - in all these years - Windows still continues to work as well as it does based on the near infinite variety of hardware configurations possible considering the decades of hardware development that have occurred since the early 1980s and continuing.
That's not to say that I favor what Microsoft is doing now with turning Windows into nothing more than a rolling release that's been more fraught with problems since Windows 10 first appeared than other versions of the OS - most notably Windows 7 - have not experienced. I've said it many times before: change for the sake of change alone is not a good thing, ever.

So I pick 7.
Amigas were the first and still this to this day the only personal computers that have hardware-based multitasking from the ground up - every personal computer ever made and every operating system that's ever been made for those personal computers except for the Amigas have been software-based multitasking of various kinds and methods.
Amigas were, are, and will forevermore be the best personal computers ever made in my not entirely so humble opinion and I miss them and the fun times long long ago. I had an Amiga 500 way way back in 1985-ish along with the superb 1080S monitor and loved every second of owning and using it because things were actually fun back in those days.
And I do tend to agree on the attacks thing yet once more that's being pointed out - it's a bit silly, isn't it?
I would almost rather use the Amiga OS or a OS from the 90's instead of Win 10.Anyways, back to our regularly scheduled program and getting this back on track. Windows just works, which is fantastic too me considering how the days back in the 90's were. We have come a long way baby.

Oh, i read it and saw the /s. For a minute I was like, so that is just normal.Yeah, I know what you mean, it is terrible how my 3 Windows 10 computers and Surface Pro 3 are crashing everyday, it is just so frustrating. /s
(Windows Mobile does too except that the new CEO killed it off, idiot. )
Of course he is an idiot. Look at how crappy he made 10 so far. They need somebody with a few brain cells to make Windows great again!Just a bump to remind everyone, Windows just works, and it does.
When you give an "upgraded" OS away for free, and not a whole lot of people bite, so you go to using virus's/malware to get people "upgraded", then there is something wrong.

Windows 7 rocks and is the best MS has put out. I wish they could make one to surpass it.
Oh, and I had the exact same issue on an Windows 7 computer yesterday which meant the issue was on the server end. Linux is hardly error or problem free so but hey, why acknowledge facts when you can just ignore them.
So let me get this straight, this thread was created so that ManOfGod and Heatlesssun could force their opinion that Windows 10 is awesome and anyone that opposes that opinion gets accused of 'striking a nerve' or told "it's completely normal"?
Because that's how this thread seems to be panning out.
On a different note, I just received a new Lumia 950 to replace the broken one that was under warranty and I was not expecting it back so quickly. I love getting unexpected packages in the mail and I have to so, I love the Windows Mobile platform, which in and of itself, just works and is well integrated. However, it does little good since the OS is now dead because of MS themselves. Therefore, no new apps and what is left is going to slowly go away. Most problems that are blamed on the OS usually are not an OS issue, including the 4.11 kernal problem discussed in the Linux thread, it was an Nvidia driver issue.
