Comment Microsoft Peaked With DOS 5 (Score 1, Insightful) 63

Microsoft peaked with DOS 5 (Maybe 6.55) but it has all been downhill since then. A 286 running DOS 5 is orders of magnitude faster than a Core i7 running Windows 11. DOS 5 was for work. Windows 11 is for play and nothing else. It is not useful for doing work. And really, this is probably just about stopping people from using the old calculator program (calc.exe) and forcing them to use the new spycalc "app" - which sucks - a calculator program with visible startup time - nice work MS.
