Even though I can't say I fully remember it, the beginning of yt, back when the Internet was a lot healthier than it's ever been due to the Wild West lifestyle (back before 3-4 webpages became the only place you go to).

Also, there for what I would consider the absolute best game console to come out since the beginning of the 2000s: xbox360. Also got to see what I consider the most aesthetically pleasing out of the box OS ever (W*ndows Vista)

I never understood the hate for vista. Ran great on my PC at the time. When 7 came out, I upgraded and was confused because it was practically identical to vista, yet people loved 7.

Same, I always liked Vista, never understood what people had against it.

I didn't realize anyone was capable of having fond memories of windows vista. Been using windows since 95 honestly I'd put windows vista at 2nd worst version ever, behind windows 8.

Those of us who grew up with win95 weren't all that bothered by Vista.

I didn't even hate me. It was fine. Felt like 98 service pack 3.

I remember using Windows 3.1.

I'm so old.
