Was doing research for Windows XP, I found Activewin and at that time there was sort of a war between the 2 sites from what I remember and people were going to Neowin. Along with me :)

Found Neowin to be way better than Activewin, I hadn't visited Activewin for years until just before this post to see if it still existed. I believe Activewin & Neowin shook hands and made up, well something like that.

i was searching any info about windows phone 8.1 and google gave me this link: A vision of how Windows Phone 8.1 could look. i was really impressed how a detail and diligent work was done for a non-existing device. i must say (as a former owner of HTC HD7 and a current owner of nokia lumia 920 and ms surface rt) that the concept described in the article is my real dream: 5.5" screen, stylus and WP.

 

without any hesitation i've followed neowin on twitter, liked it on FB and registered on this forum. here i am!

    • No. Windows 8 had little to no spywhare, is actually faster than 7 but it has the dreaded start screen, nothing that you could not fix with start8. Windows ME crashed often, but was shotlived and replaced by XP, which is a much better windows in itself.
    • Windows 8 was uninspiring but it was fine / worked. It was just overshadowed by how great Windows 7 was. Windows ME seem to be just unstable for most people - I was using Windows 2000, which was far superior. The two best versions are Windows 7 and 2000
    • I don't think ME was that bad. The stability issues were mostly caused by drivers. This was when the switch from vxd to wdm was happening. The other complaint was not being able to shut down into DOS anymore which was silly with XP right around the corner.
    • As much as I hated Windows 8, although I never used it personally on any of my own machines, I think Windows Me was hands down the worst OS from MS. I have Windows 11 on 2 unsupported machines and haven't had any issues and I actually kind of like it. Still hate how slow Windows updates are though.
    • Why do you think they whol industry would be done? Agree a lot has shifted around the launch with devs moving their dates to avoid the timeframe around the launch. But if this fails, it'll be talked about, analysed, Rockstar will likely be ridiculed but people will move on. Others devs might be more cautious about these large games but I don't think one game will change the entire industry
