What version of Windows is the Worst?

[beagle]

It looks like nobody likes Windows Vista too much, according to the vote.

Windows 98 was actually pretty bad... The GUI used way too much memory. You couldn't even look at the wallpaper without the hard drives grinding.

Whaaaat?? Win98 was the pinacle of OSs - and brought about more changes in the OS landscape than any other OS. And HDs grinding? You mean CPU, right? And that's BS anyway.

I was kidding. But it's true, though, that the GUI used a ton of space. Command-Line works better for me.

Well all GUIs use space and seriously, no need to try and pretend you prefer command line. Everyone prefers a GUI. Well, except perhaps master Foo!

Actually, I do like command-line.

Lol, why?

It's faster. If there was a GUI that was faster then the command-line, I'd use the GUI. Until then, though..
Also, Command-Line is powerful, especially on UNIX. You can usually do more with a few typed commands then you can with a few mouse clicks.

Yeah that's what I mean. If you have the same features and speed (there is no difference in nmap from command line and nmap with a gui in terms of speed) then you will always pick a GUI. Obviously, if the features aren't available with a GUI then you'd go with command. But remember, programs with GUIs often have more features.

oh cool

Unless, of course, you are using NetCat
