I like the old operating systems like 98. Because I can play Freelancer and Freespace 1 & 2. Older games like the Wing Commander series. If you have a faster operating system it looks wrong. And if it has a story line, it needs to slow down and do its thing.
Thats way my vote is for the older systems.

Huh?

It's not a faster OS, it doesn't handle the old 16 bit instructions the same.  Essentially, XP emulates a 16 bit environment.  98 is also built right on top of DOS, so it'll handle DOS-based games much better than XP.

In this kind of environment, people with little to no knowledge of how to use a computer properly use these machines, which leads to all sorts of problems.

Exactly my point.

I use Windows XP, with Blackbox shell.
