Amiga really made my life depressing, because I saw how a computer should work, which, much like my experience using BeOS, was more or less fluid.
When ever I upgraded, I could tell I had upgraded, and even the most minor updated seemed to go a long way...

...then when I finally broke down and bought a Windows machine, the depression set in. Naturally, as everyone knows, in the Windows world, Windows updates as the hardware updates, making sure you never get any use out of those extra resources.

I do edit video quite a bit, and yes the gains in hardware improvement are grand, it's just that Windows gets more bloated each and every time.

Granted, they did restore some of the lost resources, when they went from Vista to 7, but I still have 7 just as much as I hated Vista. In fact I'm running XP 32-Bit on my 64-Bit machine just for that fact. There are too many of my old programs that 7 absolutely refuses to run. :/
