I can get nostalgic over old consoles and games but...

as a computer guy its hard to get nostalgic over something like Windows 98 and its loads of problems and crashes.

Also Windows 2000 was a much better 0S and had a similiar "classic" interface yet it was built on the better NT kernal. Syd and Jeebus probably did some of their best writing on Windows 98 so maybe they need to go back to it,maybe then we could get some fucking new material that isn't Are you Afraid of the Dark related and get something new about the fucking NES.

Windows 3.1 was just a glorified word processing OS with a fancy "for the time" GUI. I experienced it first hand along with Geoworks and both sucked bad.

Windows 95 was nice if you could get it to work, which was damn hard on a 486SX, which most people had at the time.

A Serial Killer on PCP is more stable than ME, but 2000!?!?!?! Really????

2000 Pro was the finest OS ever made by Microsoft, and if it wasn't for Direct X 10+, I would still be running it.

I ran 2000 for 4 years, and never had a single BSOD. Even running on a heavily overclocked Athlon XP system.

That's beautiful nastalga, right there.
