Windows 95

Its my choice for an operating system..you just click on the boxes..really easy..good for me in business

voidmain:
And the most often clicked box in Windows 95 is "Program has performed an illegal operation, click OK to terminate application or press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart system as system may be unstable".

Actually, Win 95 isn't all that bad. I've found that the A Number One cause of crashes is Internut Exploiter. If you don't use it, and if you do some simple maintenance, basically regular (once a week isn't too much) disk defrag, Win 95 will be fairly stable. Not so stable as Linux, but much better than Win ME (although that's not saying much    ) Nor is it excessively bloated, it doesn't feature the spyware of Win XP, doesn't need activation, and it'll run on just about anything. I still find that it's useful on occasion.

Not only that, but I've noticed that Win 98 seems to be making a strong come back. It's back on store shelves, and the asking price hasn't come down at all. More and more, folks are growing fed up with XP     and are returning to what they had before.

There may be more truth to that than you know. What other company's nearly four year old products still sell for what they cost when new? Check out the prices in stores, or check out some of the OEMs: there are no price breaks if you select Win 98 or Win ME instead of taking Win XP. The demand is definitely there. Besides, how are Win 98 or Win ME any better than Win 95? That was their last good idea, and everything that's come after has just gotten worse, not better. M$'s ability to fool people seems to be reaching its limit.  :D
