The one that makes me shiver is Windows ME. I know you must agree. That was like a six month disaster.LOL.

Still have install diskettes and the box for these dinosaurs. Once loaded onto my Win 7 box, and forgot how to close SuperCalc. Many memories.

Boot faster? No problem

Mine boots in 30 seconds. Oh wait, that's on LMDE, Bodhi takes less. Windows 7 takes two minutes...

I've been using Windows since 1.0, DOS prior and after among others since like OS2 Warp, Linux and OS X in various flavors including before OS X.

Best OS I've ever used is Windows 2000, stable as a rock, the worst and shortest lived was Windows ME, what a turd.
