People dis Vista, but I don't have bad memories of it. I think they dis Me even more, but I don't remember hating it either. Maybe that's because the first version of Windows I used was 3.0, and everything since then has been at least a little step up.
My recollection is that the main reason people got annoyed with earlier versions of Windows is that they were trying to run it on machines that couldn't really handle the demands of Windows. My impression is that partly because MS has invested a huge amount of time and energy maturing the platform so it handles problems much better and partly because hardware has sort of plateaued, such problems are much less common these days.
When did you first start using the internet?

Windows Vista, despite being unstable and terrible overall, was easily the most " beautiful " version of Windows so far, IMO.
