Personally I think Windows peaked at 2000, and XP was only marginally worse (in the beginning). I only started running 7 when I got drives too big for XP to recognize. Clearly 10 is just an attempt to ape IOS and install a "store".

So, it took me several days to get the laptop running on 7 again and I got my car reader app running under the XP virtual machine, so all is good. I should send an invoice to MS for all that time...
