For what it's worth, I did find Windows XP far more stable than any of the Win9x family... and Windows 2000 more stable than XP when I threw it on the family computer around the time Vista came out... and the few times I've had to use a Win 7 machine it didn't give me any trouble... though admittedly, those Win7 machines were always in a school setting with actual IT people around to keep the things up and running... never used a Win 8 or 10 machine, but I've heard plenty of gripes about bothand people wanting to stick with Win 7 even after Microsoft dropped support... admittedly, much of the Win8/10 criticism I remember hearing was about Microsoft replacing Aero and forcing people to get used to a new interface... and I suspect some of it had more to do with trying to run them on insufficient hardware rather than the OS itself having stability issues(For all its infamy, I understand Vista is halfway decent on a rig that actually has the horsepower to handle it). Haven't heard anything one way or the other as to whether Win 11 is the new good windows or the new bad windows... but then again, the Internet has been quiet about it to the point I totally missed it coming out last year and didn't know it was a thing until it got brought up in this... I hesitate to call this a thread because we stopped talking about the original subject a long time ago and its now a mish mash of perhaps half-a-dozen conversations... ooccupational hazard of mailing lists I guess, it's so easy to go off topic while forgetting to change the subject line and split off a new thread. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
