Windows being horrendous is genuinely the greatest marketing tool for Linux ever created
The XP startup activated some long forgotten neurons
9:48 made me laugh out loud holy shit that was so unexpected
9:46 must've been the wind
9:47 H-HUH?
24:32 Edge wasn't initially based on Chomium, it had its own engine
9:47 dude just snuck that in 😭😭😭😭
The startup noises bring back so many memories its crazy
I liked Windows 2000. It was working rather good. NT 4 was also nice. Windows 7 is the best they ever made according me.
5:30 nope, "My Computer" isn't a thing anymore. it's now "This Computer"
Windows 2000 Professional must be so good it isn't even in the tier list
10:56 - where is Windows 2000 ? Lots of home enthusiasts ran that as it was vastly more stable over 98, and relatively few compatibility issues.
9:45 Linus based ❤
9:38 brother, this got me good. Did a literal spit take 😂😂
After 40 years of using nothing but Windows for my personal PCs—including the first "Windows Mobile Phone," the HTC SDA, back in 2004—I have finally switched to Linux. After several unsuccessful attempts over the years with various distributions (SUSE, Red Hat, Debian, etc.), I have now found a system in Linux Mint that is in no way inferior to my previous Windows 11 PC. It runs stably and does everything my Windows 11 PC did. I am not going back to Windows!
Combining the worst parts of Windows ME, NT, and CE, we are proud to bring you Windows CEMENT
Holy... that Windows 95 startup sound almost gave me an out of body experience. I haven't heard that in decades and it really brought me back.
Oh, you did forget Windows NT4 and 2000
Internet Explorer not arriving at the same time as the operating system seems fitting.
24:31 "And we finally got a new chromium based browser edge" shows the legacy EdgeHTML version of edge
