      Anything past 98 was/is NT. My point is NT’s kernel is actually quite good, it’s the rest that people complain about.

          I don’t count ME, that was basically 98SE as a hot garbage patch. I’ll concede on 98SE, that was the best of that kernel.

            If Me is a 98 patch then 8 is a patch too.

            11 is bad primarily because of privacy. There are also problems like Control Panel and Settings are still separate with overlapping controls. You never know where to look. It’s been 12 years of confusion.

            There are also minor annoyances like the start bar can’t be moved to the sides. They coded that into Windows 95 in a few months decades ago but can’t add it after 3 years now.
