What made Windows XP so good?

Consistency and Hierarchy
It just works.
Windows XP was basically the fixed version of Windows 2000.
All the development, testing, and enterprise usage that went into Windows 2000 is what made Windows XP what it is.
Almost like Vista and WIndows 7
Both Windows 2000 and Vista would the start to a new major version of NT. Windows 2000 being NT 5.0 and Vista being 6.0. Those early versions would help cement and stabilize some of Microsoft's best OS releases with Windows XP and NT 5.1 and Windows 7 which was NT 6.1
People who don't care about the OS and who don't want to be bothered learning a new UI and the new features of vista/7/8/10 just to check facebook, play whatever game, or shitpost on Jow Forums
It was around for a long time
that's not what he's asking
You're talking about the reasons for using XP today and he's asking what improvements it made over other iterations
it was windows xp. it did lots of new things.
thank you
Sorry XP fag but he asked why it was "good", it's not that good, so I'm giving a reason as to why it's perceived as good. If he wanted to know why it was better than win2000 he would ask "what made XP better than 2000"
Even if he did mean what you're saying, it's his fault for writing it in a way that multiple people misunderstood the question.
