    Windows XP was a good, solid OS. Not FOSS, obviously, but I imagine most people would remember it fondly. Not heresy, maybe just some mild blasphemy.

      Most of the casual people never heard of Linux back then, because it was so fucking niche. Like an abysmal niche, that you could never acknowledge its existence.

      Windows xp was good. Still is, if you unplug the Ethernet cable.
