i dont know if id go as far as saying that windows rocks but i would say that computers would be nowhere where they are today withough microsoft and intel.

windows has alot of problems most due to its popularity (everyone wants to run in on all kinds of goofy hardware, and hackers dont bother with unpopular os being 2 reasons)
and intel cpus have poroblems mostly due to backwards compatibility. but all in all both companies have reseased products that have been useful for millions of people and have constantly pushed the state of the art.

commodore pushed technology twice  with the 1000 and the 3000. aga in 92 was only a minor push.

i think its kind of funny when people talk about bloated os
how do you know it is bloated? do you know how many applications are used and how many libraries support stuff.

when os 3.0 came out and used 6 disks to install did anyone talk about bloat?

the more you got the more you find use for. thats what winxp does. if you have 1gig of ram it loads more stuff into ram. xp will boot with what 64megs bare minimum. do you really want to sit with most of a gig doing nothing and wait for stuff to load when it could be ready to go?
