Seriously, bring back 95 or XP.

No thank you, not a chance. Leave my Win7pro alone, it's very stable.
I don't miss my old 1970's Ford either.

*sigh* I’m upgrading to Win 7 next weekend. My new CAD program just won’t run on XP. Dammit.

XP, while obsolete, weak on security, and increasingly dangerous to use on the internet, can be run in a captive non-internet environment with decent results.

But 95? Really? I'm hoping you were joking.

Running 95 these days would be like sitting around at age 40 daydreaming about that cute chick you knew back in high-school, and deciding to look her up and ask her out to dinner.

Trust me, 20 years makes a hell of a difference, and in neither situation is it generally for the better. :)
