    Everybody who did know what they were doing were using Windows 2000. That was a really, really good one.

      The initial release was a bit rough but holy shit that OS was basically magic when it was dialed in. 100% my favorite.

      Next to no resource usage. Reasonably secure (for its time - especially compared to other offerings) … and all settings were right in reach.

      No bullshit, no fluff. It played the os role perfectly. Run your shit and get the hell out of your way. I still believe they killed it off early to force people to switch. It was murdering the new os in performance benchmarks.
