Windows peaked at XP. Vista was the plateau on the other side, followed by the sheer cliff of windows 7.

What? Windows 7 was probably the best version of windows ever just ahead of 2000.

Windows 8 was where the cliff was.

People look back at XP through rose tinted glasses. It was incredibly insecure in every way. Vista made the security architecture changes needed. Windows 7 was polish on top.

Windows 8 was where metro, start menu ads, auto installing unwanted apps, and ruining Windows control panel / settings happened.
