Still fits "Public displays and digital infrastructure software failing to do their job because of blue screens, crashes or other problems"
They seem like XP icons, but this may be windows CE? Rare spot nowadays.
Last version was officially supported until 2023, but via oems until 2028.
This is a photo of an earlier version, it's definitely win ce, same icons:
Yep, Windows CE 5.0
Only recently discontinued by Zebra: https://www.zebra.com/us/en/support-downloads/interactive-kiosks/mk500.html
Though FW says March 2018, so I am not sure about software support.
Windows CEMeNT gets me every time
Legit I miss Windows 7. It did what it was supposed to do, it got out of your way, and it was stable as fuck.
98SE, XP, and 7. The three best.
The worst is ME. It always will be. I bought a laptop brand new with ME that kept crashing, replaced it with 98SE, ran great after that.
Ahh yes; Windows Mistake Edition.
Followed up by Vista and 8.
What did 7 do that XP did not?
Run 64 bit software reliably, among other things. People tend to forget how bad XP was, it was just that it was released before and after even worse versions (ME and Vista if you only look at the consumer line). It was quite bad before SP1. There were also a lot more bluescreens under XP. I guess this was also a result of of the introduction of the Windows Display Driver Model which made graphics much more reliable.
You could argue XP wasn’t great until SP2 for a litany of reasons.
It was at least usable at that point, but it still had significant limitations. I basically migrated from XP to Linux, with getting a Windows 7 partition later. I actually believe 7 was a good system from the very beginning all things considered. Though one might argue that it was just a paid service pack for Vista.
Windows 3.1 was the shit but the last decent windows was XP.
Nah it's 7. Even 10 was terrified of it.
Because 7 8 9
I'll chime in with my unpopular opinion: Windows 8.1
The best experience I had. It was so well optimized it ran faster than Linux Mint. Note however the difference between 8 and 8.1. 8 should have been marketed as a separate product, say "Windows Touch" or something along those lines.
I just re-installed win7 on a PC where the drive failed (used for reading and programming cars from about 2014)
The driver story is such a mess with this version of windows! That is definitely better with win11
So it's some self-reflection? 🤔
Are those the ones with cameras on them? I always stick some tape over the camera.
Nope.
