"This is the easiest-to-use version of Windows yet, and will help bring the power of the PC to new users worldwide," Bill Gates announces. The press release goes on to claim that the operating system "dramatically improves the key areas that keep users waiting on their PC today, including opening applications, accessing the Internet, and shutting down the PC. This enhanced performance, along with powerful new self-maintenance and update features, empowers users to spend more time enjoying their PCs and less time managing their system."
Windows Vista? No, Windows 98.
