Windows 7 was alright, except for nearly every aspect of its 64-bit infrastructure. But it was also basically a $100 patch for Vista that took 2.5 years to make so they could put that house fire in their rear view mirror while there were still people inside. Oh, and probably to fuck up government work for the better part of a decade.

Yeah, it definitely wasn't perfect, but I was primarily focusing on the UI since that's what the others in this thread were focusing on.
