3.1 is where it's at.
Those were the days. I had to type "win" into a prompt to start-up Windows. That takes me back.

I take back everything I said before - Windows XP kicks ass.

XP kicks ass, but I voted for 98, for nostalgy purposes and for being the last version of Windows truly built over DOS and supporting every DOS application.

Actually, I've had a lot more DOS based games run good on XP, than on 98... I don't know why.

I like Xp. When I tried putting 95 on my comp, boy did it slow down for some odd reason.

I have no problem with Apple OS X. However, I absolutely hate useless Window bashing. Fuck off.

Don't get me wrong. I'll gladly emulate Windows 98SE on a G5. That's the only one I can stand.

98SE is the version I still use, though pretty soon (read, as soon as Dogbreath earns/steals enough money) I'm getting another hardrive and duel-booting with XP*. IMO, 98SE is the most kickass version of windows, ever. Though I like 3.1 as well simply because I used it for so long.
*because for some damn reason game and software companies are making products that only run with XP nowadays...

Windows ME - cause its just another example of Microsoft making a big big big mistake.
Not only is it the OS that has the Most problems, its the one OS I was fixing most - cause most ppl called me to fix their PC's. Stupid ME

Dogbreath: Get 2000 Pro. Cheaper, more reliable, and runs smoother. It's like 98se on steroids, and in date.
