XP- Still Rules the OS World
The world of desktop computers has never been easier with XP which was supposedly to be taken over by Vista which failed considerably due to a lot of compatibility issues that came up and overall, Vista proved to be too clunky for most users so they reverted to XP. XP was a long time coming due to the fact it took a few years for it to stabilize enough to make it easy to use. Mainly due to security and compatibility issues, it wasn’t till Microsoft released SP2 that many argue turned XP into a totally new Operating System that it became stable enough to get people who still used Win 98′ to shift.
The one thing Microsoft failed to consider was the fact that during all the time they were releasing Vista, people had acquired a lot of software and hardware investments that run well on XP and was not supported on Vista. Backwards compatibility is built-into Vista but only with extensive modifications to drivers and hardware setup that proved to bee too much for most users to engage in, or simply had little time to fiddle around till they got it to work.
