Serious question.
Microshit has unlimited resources and funds.
Why can't it make a normal OS that is not complete garbage?
Why can't they just build a brand new OS based on "nix from scratch that has a good graphical subsystem, user space driver injection, etc.?
Why do they have to add shit on top of shit every year? I don't get it.
>lazy
>greedy
>pajeets
>de-facto monopoly (government facilities, schools, companies, gaymers, tech illiterates, normies in general)
because we need more money im sorry :)
central control doesn't scale
Yeah I get all that, but wouldn't a new modern OS from the ground up scale better for the next 20 years?
Wanblows 10 literally has code from 1995.
there's nothing really wrong with the NT core itself, if anything it's probably much nicer than the 30 year old bloated mess of the Linux kernel since it's more frequently rewritten
but all of the overlaying software is going to be messier over the decades because function always triumphs over form and elegance, nobody wants yet another lazy *nix stack that does nothing actually important that you can't already do on existing solutions at the cost of wasting time rebuilding, re-learning and re-training.
as long as people buy it en masse? no. windows at this point is a giant project of legacyware for the 3 retards who still run their business logic on vbasic macros in excel 2003 or msdos 16bit applications
it has code from 1995 because it needs to run software from 1995
they wouldn't be able to make a good operating system from scratch either
>it has code from 1995 because it needs to run software from 1995
Why do they need to do that?
Can't they have 2 OSs, one consumer the other legacy?
I get banks and shit need legacy software, but jeez.
that was the long term plan with metro and it didn't go over well
