Windows 3.1 with original mouse!

What was the original mouse?
Sounds like it ran of floppies or something similar of bad technology!
I know that windows XP, VISTA and some before came with a ball at the bottom that moved something in order to create a signal from the mouse to go to the computer. Now they use light and receptors to detect movement. Somehow, people use touchscreen on computer too, it technically isn't a computer if it has a touchscreen (it's just a large tablet!)

I can appreciate where you are coming from, but you are nutz!! That system sucked and I hated waiting for that system to load anything I wanted to do.  Even organ trail ran slow as hell.  I hope you are joking about this.

Windows 3.1 with original mouse!

Its not even in the list of option lol.

if your computer runs windows 3.1, you might just considering a light weight linux derivative like puppy linux which could run perfectly with just a 256 of RAM.
It don't even need a drive if you want it to load on RAM itself. This linux is fast and can work well with old computers, it has tons of flavors as well so you'd have some options.

Not sure on the processor, but: based on the preformance f old computers. Just get a raspberry pi. You could also run most linux operating systems off of Optical drives (DVD RW), pen drives or SD Cards, or most other storage mediums. Based on the OS, there are probably less BiOS settings to change in order to run the different Operating Systems. I also understand that, if the computer is ARMv3 type it will run raspbian. And most are ARMv7, which runs normal operating systems, such as Linux: Ubuntu and Windows.

I am using windows 8.1 operating system and I can say that it has served me well over the past one year. One thing I love about this operating system is that it is very stable even when compared to the just released windows 10. I am a programmer and i know that the software once in the market always experience bugs that take time to fix them. Therefore, it is the time to have your windows 8.1 with no much drama.

I have grown fond of the Windows 7 operating system.  It reminds me of the windows 98 system we all loved, but with out all the bugs that Windows ME had and Windows 8 has.  I have not tried Windows 10 yet, but i was warned off of it.

I'm sticking to windows 7. I don't like the interface of windows 8. As for windows 10, I heard about privacy issues a lot, so a no for now.

Used Windows 7,8,XP,ME and XP was the best at it's time, now I think Windows 7 is the most decent version.

Why is there only one choice?

I use unix (solaris, aix), BSD (freebsd), linux (SLES12, debian, ubuntu, opensuse) and windows (7) on a daily/weekly basis.

Windows 7 is the best new version though I didn't try windows 10 yet, Windows XP is the best older version IMO.

XP was the best operation system in it's time, currently I think Windows 7 is the best actively updated operation system.

Linux

That OS is winning. What type of Linux is your favourite?

I know the main ones are: Debian, Ubuntu, LinuxMint...

Not very surprising on a bitcoin forum, many people here are concerned about privacy and all that, pretty anti Microsoft I presume. Also not the guy you quoted but I think Ubuntu is definitely the best if you want to just use Linux for regular things. I've also checked out ArchLinux and it looks pretty neat but it's pretty complicated to install and in general not the most accessible operating system.
