It seems like they try to “innovate,” and then people complain and tell them why they don’t like it, and they fix it in the next version

they dont have to INNOVATE. they just need to keep building on a great fucking operating system they already have and stop trying to reinvent the wheel. it's like nobody GETS THAT at microsoft!

I disagree fundamentally, I want to see large improvements and reinventions. I don't want to be using Windows Xp forever. Sorry.

Every other OS is perfectly fine. Vista got off to a shaky start, but it was really just driver support and once that was in place it was perfectly stable. Windows 8 was an enormous improvement under the hood but it got a bad rap because they made a superficial change to the start menu that confused boomers.

Heck, if you had modern hardware, Vista was just as stable as 7 (in my experience anyways). It was just a bit more RAM hungry.
