why?
>latest support
>faster than 7
>still has all nice win7 features (custom GUI, control panel, etc), you just need to bring them up with classic shell and a bit of tweaking
>telemetry is not as violent as win10
>you can disable updates and update whenever you want
>>52596583
I agree, you can customise with third party themes with little setup and with some effort make your own. It's fast has support updated regularly (although not always good), can run gaymes, is usuable.

>you can disable updates and update whenever you want
this and so much about Win10 being 'simplified' is so disgusting. Also, it feels like there's so much bloat into Windows itself now because everything is an app now.
Worst part is that your settings get shuffled around when you update (basically turns on everything you probably turned off), I only just realized that this shit went back to automatic.
I upgraded anyways since there are some things that are more convenient, and so I'll know I can still use my mobo with a supported OS for quite a few years.

it's the best os out there, I recently moved all my workflow to linux. I use a vm for office and only reboot in windows for muh AAA games
>>52596533
aw yeah
Win 3.1
Because it DOS
>>52596538
This
>>52596347
Windows 7 is the last good Windows. Windows 8 is a botnet, and if you think Windows 7 is slow, you need better hardware.
>>52597323
it's a 7 year old OS m8
nobody is saying 8 is better than 7, but it's age is starting to show (you need sp1 for everything, it IS slow no matter what hardware you got because of it's boot and disk maintenance procedures, etc)
>>52597323
>7 is not botnet
I would argue that the worst arspect of the next windows are the vomiting inducing UI
Windows XP. Only underages think 7 was good. You really should use Linux though.
>>52596347
The latest one.
Windows xp was the last great windows OS. Far too much bloat in vista/7/8.1/10 and 7/8.1 has been infected with windows 10 botnet.
>no mention of Win2k
Disgusting
>>52598184
It's a few updates you can choose not to install on Windows 7/8.1, how hard is that?
>>52598217
2k fucking sucked, by the time you installed av and a firewall it would already be blue screening
>>52597866
I get 8 second boot times on Windows 7, you need better hardware.
>>52598430
awoo~
>>52596347
10 (everybody who says otherwise are just trolls)
>>52596347
7 onwards are all fine. 8.1 is probably the "best". 7 is situational but highly flexible. 10 is slightly modernized but dogshit for compatibility.
>>52598498
look out guys, we got a Microsoft employee over here

>>52598591

>>52596347
7 if you actually need to work
if you're just using your browser to surf the web there is literally no difference, might as well just use 10
>>52598632
The fact that they record everything, viewing how many pictures and videos you view is just astonishing, like why do they need that information? For what purpose? They removed photo viewer in place of the metro photos app to track the stuff.
>>52598618
XP for work, and everyday basic stuff.
Win7 64bit for gaming.
all the rest is pointless and even more problematic.
>>52598498
What gender did you choose this morning?

enjoy your weak OS and tons of malware
>>52599030
Don't you ever fucking insult XP when I'm in the same thread again.
Is 10 really as bad as everyone says it is? It just looks like windows 7.2
>>52599182
yes, it's fucking terrible
botnet aside, just as a comparison, GNU/Linux boots on an HDD as fast as W10 boots on an SSD
>>52599029
Oh man I used to love fun house
>>52598426

You had shitty hardware

I love this meme.
>>52600089
what meme would that be?
>>52599318
>Muh boot times
literally fucking irrelevant as long as the difference isn't larger than 30 seconds.
and i say that as an acolyte of RMS
>>52600396
It's from /tv/, someone said something like "Don't you ever fucking reply to me again unless you're contributing to the thread"
