Windows ME

Windows ME - a ridiculous example of how bad Microsoft operating systems can be. Windows ME (or Windows Mistake Edition if you know what I'm saying) had started development in 1999 while Windows NT 5.0 (known as Windows 2000 in its final release) was being developed for professional use. Windows ME was meant to be for home use and it was basically an upgrade to Windows 98. It was also the last operating system to be ran on top of MS-DOS (which made no sense because even though Windows NT existed, why would Microsoft want to make a 32-bit operating system on top of a 16-bit kernel?). It was also rushed - good job Microsoft. (You didn't only rush this OS so good job!) Due to how rushed it was, it had performance issues and driver support showed vulnerabilities. (Some builds of ME fucking blue screened when shutting down in safe mode - how amazing.) . Programs also ran on a single string of memory, meaning if one program crashed, every other program would crash too.
In 2000:

Person 1: "Hey, why are you using Windows 2000 at your house even though it's for professional use?"
Person 2: "Windows ME just doesn't support hardware that Windows 2000 does and it's shit. When I tried Windows ME at another place it just blue screened like every second.")
Person 1: "Understandable."

Windows Vista

The best operating system, a perfect combination of Windows xp and Windows 7, all in a delightfully aesthetic and beautiful theme known as aero glass. Windows Vista has extreme multimedia features, although you may want to install a secondary media player in case certain encoding types don't work. Windows Vista's hardware selection with supported drivers may be low, but if you can acquire a stable setup to use it on, it's a blast and perfectly snappy.
"I just installed Windows Vista on my computer, no wonder it's shit."
"have you tried installing it on an actually capable machine?"
"no-"
"try doing that first before you say it's shit then, bitch."
"damn aight, aight."
