XP was my favorite as well, at least among the Windows. Not the first OS I used (that would be DOS 3). But it was the last MS OS I used.

Oh it was my favorite OS as well, it crashed way way less and did its job admirably, I just prefer the Windows 98 UI.

So basically windows server 2003. Peak desktop productivity UX.

Yep, exactly.

XP x64 was a lovely desktop, and was essentially 2k3 desktop. Last Windows system I enjoyed using.

For me that was KDE 3. In fact, KDE 3 had such a fan base that even until today there is still an active port.
