Better is a subjective word.

OS are supposed to work for the user, windows with successive OS's have got more and more bloated. Sure as time has gone on the more people have been able to pick up a computer and use them.

No need to mess about with emm386.exe to make use of your extended or expanded to get games to work.

But i don't think i'd say better is the right word, different maybe. For all the UI fixes and ease of use improvements, more overheads, more system requirements, more security holes.

Win64 lack of driver support, lack of new OS for years?, new ones are going to have to be superb otherwise i think we could soon see potential challengers to the MS OS range.
