    Windows XP… such expressive, truly material-like, design, only Vista comes close. But XP ran so much better.

        Vista had better features and stuff, but people hated it because it was a huge jump in needing extra resources and any mid tier or lower laptop that came pre-installed with it the first year was underspecced for it, so it ran like turd on those and sucked away gaming performance on everyone’s rig.
