On the contrary — Windows (as in Windows 7) is second only to VMS in
my estimation; unfortunately Microsoft so lost the plot at Windows 8
that it is increasingly unlikely that they will ever find it again,
rather as the introduction of so-called "Open VMS" spelled the
beginning of the end for VMS itself. <br>
