I didn't forget Microsoft Bob. In fact, I ran Microsoft Bob on Windows XP once:

Screenshot 1 :: Screenshot 2

As you can see, I can start Duke Nukem 3D, GTA: Vice City and Winamp from BOB.

Win95 = MS's first operating system (except DOS)
Win98 = bloated, buggier version of Win95 with higher RAM support
WinME = bloated, buggier version of Win98 with just more bundled software
-------------------------
WinNT 3.1 = new kernel with Win3.1 shell
WinNT 3.5 = newer version with almost nothing
WinNT 4 = Win95 with better kernel
Win2k = Win98 with better kernel and up-to-date IE and WMP (5.0 and 6.4 at the time)
WinXP - bloated, buggier version of Win2k with more bundled software

Oh, I guess Windows 1, Windows 2 and Windows 3 never existed
