Win95. :-) I loved Windows 2000 for a long time. I learned the registry pretty well and took advantage of that. I ran XP right up until about a year ago when my processor gave up. I've run years without any overhead or even virus protection. Used RAM Disk and even Photoshop was really fast. Once I moved LMS to pCP and started down that road I've never longed for anything else. The community is pretty darn good and a lot of the plugins, etc are really great. BTW, the SD Card Image was a long time coming, but is really nice.
