No one will ever forget XP. It's probably the best Windows OS they've made. XP was the reason why Windows 7 could be made today. You should thank it.

2000 was the reason XP was made. 98 was the reason 2000 was made. 95 was the reason 1998 was made. Windows 3.5 was the reason why 95 was made. 3.1 was the reasons 3.5 was made. Mac OS 1 was the reason 3.1 was made. 2.11 was the reason 3.0 was made. 2.10 was the reason 2.11 was made. Windows 2.03 was the reason 2.10 was made. Windows 1.04 was the reason 2.03 was made. Windows 1.03 was the reason 1.04 was made. 1.02 was the reason 1.03 was made. And windows 1.01 was the reason 1.02 was made!
So everyone should applaud Windows 1.01 for making Windows 7 possible! ;D
Edit: Mac OS 1 was the actual reason why Windows 3.1 was made.

It lasted 10 years, and it is still around! Windows 7 should have been Vista. Well once all is said and done, I'm glad Windows 7 is out

I always say this, vista was more like a beta for win7 and a way M$ could make more money.

Hmm I would say Vista was more like a trial run of what Win7 is. Just to see how customers would react to the new UI. Although it's lovely, Vista is a resource-hog! I'm glad Win7 is a little more giving.
And on a side note, Win8's start screen is horrid. I'd rather have a desktop.

*cough* Fixed your post, Nick.
btw Windows would be very very very very very very very different if Apple didnt hire Microsoft to develop apps for Mac OS 1. Which they copied and sold before Mac was released. Bill Gates is an extremely clever business man who plays dirty.
But it definitely paid off!
