yeah cuz it's native widgetset instead of some shitty web technology. win32 was uber based but alas it is time to move on to something like qt and kde. even though they are flat (by default) it still renders nicely and works great.
That's Thunderbird, it's an Internet suite. It's an official Mozilla project with a Gecko browser (somewhat Firefox compatible extension-wise) and Thunderbird rolled into one along with a pre-installed IRC plugin and some other goodies.
I used Windows 98SE until 2004 because it was finally stable by 2001, only midwits jumped onto a new Windows on launch day + 1 year. For the Zoomers out there, XP fucking sucked until SP1 released.
I would argue it was SP2 when it became a stable workhorse.
Zoomers whose first taste of WinXP was sp2 usually tend to forget or dont even know how big of a pile of shit it was at launch
the meme winMe set a pretty low bar to jump, but 2000 was way more stable and kino for a considerable time
>Zoomers whose first taste of WinXP was sp2 usually tend to forget or dont even know how big of a pile of shit it was at launch >the meme winMe set a pretty low bar to jump, but 2000 was way more stable and kino for a considerable time
I went through every Windows edition starting from DOS + Win 3.1 up to Win 8 when I finally gave up my dual booting Windows just for gaming to just using Linux full time, these fucking Zoomers who keep repeating that Win 2000 was amazing obviously did not live through the era, NO WINDOWS WAS STABLE UNTIL 2 YEARS AFTER THE RELEASE. Windows 95 was never stable, we just moved to Windows 98, which had most of the same issues until SE released and by 2001 it was just as rock solid as the "Win XP SP2 never die" meme. Both Windows ME and Windows 2000 were awful on release and once again people only remember the end product, not the release date fuckups. Windows 7 is the FIRST reason Microsoft made that was perfect on launch, mainly because Vista ate shit so hard forcing driver signing against asshole companies like Creative that refused to make new drivers following the new standard for older hardware, thinking that they could just israelite consumers into getting new sound cards.
Time traveler here, this is the undeniable truth, with the exception of a small moment of hope with Windows 8. Then 8.1 came out and it was back to all garbage.

Those things were cool. They're now being re-released as "Wanderful Interactive Storybooks" by a new company started by the original developers.
I still remember that logo to this day lmao
Old school point and clicks were so full of fucking soul

I was 7 years old, twas the year my dad gave me my first laptop. I remember playing online billiards and having dirty chats. They were probably prototroons trying to groom me, but they were girls in my mind, I like to picture one in particular as having a short black bob, being short and kinda chubby in the right places, and not a glasses wearer. RIP Dad...
Unlike most of LULZ I was 23, married (still am, knocked three kids out of her), employed - and quite the Windows 2000 baby duck, which still occupies a warm place in my heart.
>23 and married >Xp was your baby duck
Did u just not own a computer before 2001 or something
I was a kid and still remember when xp was hot shit and we finally got a copy on my mom's computer

you're a fucking retard if you weren't using windows 2000 well before xp came out. shit was stable as hell and worked perfectly for games after like sp1 or spf2
Most of LULZ were children, the vast majority of the remainder were poor, in 2000. They weren't toting the 64MB RAM required for Win2k to get out of bed, and certainly not the 128MB for it to actually be useful.
In 2000, 64MB RAM wasn't offensively expensive - indeed, a decent quality whitebox probably came with that amount - but 128MB was getting into "overkill" territory. Like having a 16MB 486, or a 32GB machine today.
It didn't stay that way for long of course, but that was the era when computers were still doubling their specs every 18-24 months.

Lolwut
If you aren't a zoomer pretending to be older, refresh your memory gramps.
In 2000, 64 MB ram was already toaster tier, and 128 MB ram was standard for new low end machines. Respectable ram amount in 2000 was 256 to 512 MB ram, and 1 GB custom built rigs were already starting to show up from power users and people who worked with heavy image or video editing.
But yeah, it's easy to get confused, because during the late 1990s and early 2000s PC specs were advancing way too fast. Just 4 years before, by 1996, most motherboards couldn't even support more than 64 MB of ram.
Post Microsoft "philanthropist" vaccine Bill is honestly worse than Microsoft era "cringe doom commercial" Bill, so maybe you are onto something there.
kek, born 1983. i was 18 in 2001. was making due with an 800mhz s370 celeron, 256mb ram, 20gb hdd, and a 3dfx voodoo 3 2000. sadly i was cursed w/dial-up internet still.
Yesterday, August 15th, the usual vagrant old man (60 years old), a young craftsman who likes to get dirty (45 years old) who sent me an e-mail the other day, and me (53 years old) gathered. And we had a blast under the bank of a river in northern Okayama Prefecture.
Today is a holiday tomorrow, so I bought sake and snacks at a convenience store. Also, it's a place where people rarely come, so I started doing it after drinking sake.
While three people licked each other's dicks, they became only jikatabi and put in three enemas that they brought. After a while, the hole in the buttocks twitches, and feces are swirling around in the belly looking for an exit.
I had a vagrant old man lick my butthole, and when I licked a young man's asshole, the young man first threw feces into my mouth.
At the same time, both the old man and I gave feces. My face is already covered with feces. While scooping the feces produced by the three of us, we painted each other's bodies, licked each other's feces-covered dicks, and gave an enema with urine. Oh, I can't stand it.
After doing it for a while, I feel like I'm going crazy when I do enema again. When I put my dick in the vagrant's old man's butthole, the butthole is slippery with feces and urine, and it feels good.
The young man is also using his hips with his dick in the old man's mouth. I ejaculated with all my strength while scratching the dick of an old man covered in feces.
After that, the old man and the young man licked each other's feces, painted each other's feces, and made semen twice. i want to do it again.
After all it is the best when it becomes covered with feces in large numbers. Why don't you play shit with such a perverted father? Oh, let's get covered in feces quickly.
The guy who can meet in the north of Okayama is the best. I am 163 cm tall, weigh 90 kg, 53 years old, and the old man is 165 cm tall, weighs 75 kg, 60 years old. If you want to do it covered in feces, please email me immediately.
WinXP was soul
still running xp
this UI is literally perfect, look at how crisp that rendering is
yeah cuz it's native widgetset instead of some shitty web technology. win32 was uber based but alas it is time to move on to something like qt and kde. even though they are flat (by default) it still renders nicely and works great.
i have never seen that browser in my life. what the fuck is that.
That's Thunderbird, it's an Internet suite. It's an official Mozilla project with a Gecko browser (somewhat Firefox compatible extension-wise) and Thunderbird rolled into one along with a pre-installed IRC plugin and some other goodies.
>That's Thunderbird
Meant That's SeaMonkey
XP is actually slow, bloated spyware, and I'll be sticking with Windows 2000 (or even 98SE) 4-EVARRRRRRRRR.

whole post invalidated by suggesting win98se was ever as stable as windows 2000 or xp. fuck off
xp wasn't out yet in 2001 zoomie
Whistler then. Some ran betas.
I came. Perfection.
i wasnt even in my dad's balls bro
Off by a month
>Fuck G.W.
nice
lol, i knew that damn cd key by memory back in the day
Actually I was in a child's crib. That child was me, I was the child, and it was my crib.
Just in case that wasn't clear.
I forgot how young 18 is lol
I was tormenting my teachers in 2001
two more weeks until the year of the Linux desktop. look at this graph, Windows is finished and bankrupt.
>This color bloated UI is for normies and retards. I will be staying in Windows 2000, the white man's OS.
after those fisher price colors vanished from windows, they started to appear on popular videos on youtube.
I couldn't find any of my screenshots from 2001 on my NAS, but I found some from 2002.
I was 1 year old at that time.
Windows 95 was the peak of soul for Microsoft. It was all downhill from there.
mfw i'm finally unconstipated
Time traveler here, this is the undeniable truth, with the exception of a small moment of hope with Windows 8. Then 8.1 came out and it was back to all garbage.
I like Windows 8.x because it puts window titles back where they always belonged: centered, as real GUIs have always done.
How come there's no black people or pajeets?
oh i thought gates did it 6 weeks after 9/11, but it's actually 3 weeks prior
goo goo gaa gaa
Still on Windows 98
It just works.
XP is going to be a slow pile of shit
windows XP was pretty nice but man it was unstable at launch
>October 25, 2001
I had a Celeron 266 back then.
That's was a cock-gobblingly bad machine, even in 2001.
No matter how much you think you hate first-run celerys, it's not enough.
https://redhill.net.au/c/c-9.php#celeron
Yep, that's the one. SL2QG. That was my first pc, bought used.
I've got it on my desk right now. I remember overclocking it to 333MHz
Thanks but I'll be sticking with slackware
Windows is for grandmas
*shits diaper*
>October 25, 2001
Would've been messing around with my nursery's Windows 95 computer and playing old Living Books games.
I still remember that logo to this day lmao
Old school point and clicks were so full of fucking soul
For me, it's Reader Rabbit.
Gizmos and Gadgets fuckers
don't forget what has been taken from you

you're probably right but it's funny, I don't remember that requirement at all and I definitely didn't have top-of-the-line hardware back then

When microsoft was still good and remarkable.
do we love bill gates here

I only need it to run my irc client and mp3 player
