How would you rate/classify each MS OS (including Windows 10) now?

[Rafael Mestdag]

After trying Windows 10 for a while now, this is my classification:

1.Windows 10(Best compromise between Win8.1 and Win7)
2.Windows 7(Best UI graphics by far)
3.Windows Vista
4.Windows XP
5.Windows 95/98/ME

1. Windows 7
2. Windows Vista
3. Windows 10
4. Windows XP
5. Windows 98
6. Windows 95
7. Windows 2000
8. Windows Me ( mistake edition )
9. Windows NT
10. Windows 8.1
11. Windows 8

My opinion as a Tech...

Windows 10 better than XP? That sounds almost promising. I like Windows 7 but I don't like that it won't run old games without some determined tinkering.

Windows 8 I would rate slightly below Windows 3.1 but above Linux.

1- Windows 10
2- Windows Vista / 7 <---- I put them in the same place
3- Windows 8.1
4- Windows 8
5- Windows 2K
6- Windows xp

1st = 8.1
2nd = 7
2.5th = various Linux
3rd = 2000/XP
4th = FreeBSD

Not touching W10 due to privacy crap

10 is okay, I didn't like XP as much as everyone else did, it was a pretty dumbed down OS and x64 Version was a joke.
The security junk with windows 10 is sketchy, and can be disabled, but I don't think it should be the default. I am not leaving Windows 7 until 2020. It's stable, I have never had issues with it and manages things in a way I like. 8 and 8.1 were not bad per se when it came to it's functioning, that Metro UI and confusion on just getting to the dang desktop and start button and just so many other things made both a turn off for me. 10 is kind of like a nice mix of 7 and 8.1 but it's still buggy and too new for me to bother with it... even if it is free right now.
