The plain old basic hammer probably should have been Windows 2000, and then a big playskool plastic stuff slapped on for XP, but ultimately pretty much exactly the same.

Telemetry started way, way earlier then Win 10.

Windows 98 still had DOS built in right? I kind of have an itch to install it in a vm or something.

Windows 8 was actually great after the initial issues at launch.

Most of windows products get increasingly worse over time. Security updates aside, I've never understood why the didn't just stop updating things to save themselves the money and save us the hassle.
