Damn, that 2000 excuse for a garbage can was just as bad as Windows 2000! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

What you got against Windows 2000?

Was incredibly stable and quick when compared to 95 and 98

They are thinking of Windows ME.

It was so bad it was excluded from the image.

Windows 2000 was rough with some driver support, but otherwise was fantastic.

Last Windows OS that I truly enjoyed using.

Excuse me? 2000 was the last great OS Microsoft ever made. They should have stopped there. It was NT in its prime. It was also, in my opinion, the last Windows OS to act like a computer instead of a toy and insulting my intelligence with dumbed down interfaces. It felt like Linux feels now. It felt like you're in control of your computer.

XP was just 2000 with a toddler-esque Fisher Price skin.
