I quit after Windows 2000. XP seemed like it just added bloat to force you to buy a new computer without adding anything useful and my computer wouldn’t run it. I used 2000 until I couldn’t any more then got an Ubuntu disc when they used to mail them out for free and never looked back.

Windows 2000 was a low-key disaster, but I get not wanting to use the fisher-price interface.

But man, did Win2k fanboys beat that one point to death to try and slander XP . 😂

(to be fair: XP before SP2 was an unmigigated disaster as well. It just got a fix eventually, but 2k never did)
