In fact I purposefully held out through windows 2000 and windows millennium because I could not stand those two newer OS's compared to 98. It was by far the most stable version of windows until XP finally came along and forced me to upgrade. It had been similar with windows vista and windows 8. I do not care for either of those OS's and for that reason am holding doggedly to Windows7 which is in my opinion the highest evolution of the windows species by far. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you, and be sure of this, I will be with you always even unto the end of the age. Mathew 28:20

Many of the apps I used to run on the 9x series had a tendency of crashing unexpectedly with that ever-annoying Illegal Operation message appearing. I also learned when working with digital art to save my files incrementally just in case one of them became corrupted (which happened to me on several occasions).
