First micro was an Acorn Atom around 1981. First home built PC in around 1988.
Used Windows from the very early days of 3.0 when (Xerox?) Gem became the less useful competitor.
Around Win 2003, XP era they started taking useful functionality out or burying it and taking the useful KB articles off the net.
About that time I wanted to look at VoIP and stumbled into VoIP@home which was hosted by CentOS and I, initially, ran in a Win 2000 VM.
Not long after MS bought Hotmail and found that Windows servers couldn’t keep it going and they had to replace it with UNIX. Maybe that timeline isn’t quite right.
Started transitioning away from Windows that that stage and am so glad I did. I think Win 12 will just consist of a start button and everything else will require daily subscription.
From being a Win fanboy to just wishing he’d have taken the whole thing to that Epstein island with him and left it there.
