    OH MY GAWD!  I've never heard so much crap, from people who I would think know better.  Maybe NOT!

    I'm running the smallest and fastest MS OS since DOS 6.22. 

     

    this tells alot about "your knowledge"

    It installed in < ten minutes and is lightning FAST. 

     

    i installed XP in less than 5 minutes
    oh wait yes... i modified it...

     

  2. well in defence of windoze, NT is evolving system so naturally it became heavier
    but this "heavyness" should have stopped after win7,
    granted 8 was mostly invested in ARM code and again forced .NET what they called "UWP" back then

    but with 10 and 11 oh my freaking gawd... garbage upon garbage
    i know i've seen on some site dev commenting (think it is that chinese guy on ms blog) how many lines of code had vista versus 10
    i think it trippled

  3. i don't think you can compare phone browsing and pc browsing
    hence why mobile browsers go to m.website.whatever and pc do not
    yes you can still use old browsers on phone and not much RAM
    heck until recently i still used Opera that was ~11 years old for Android, 90% sites ran smoothly

    but mobile sites were "made" for mobile browsing, not to mention most started for webkit anyway...

    Here is a techno-philosophical question:

    How could it be that we got along with 256MB - 1024MB(1GB)
    RAM when NT5.0/5.1 dominated the web ?

     

     

     

    you can see this using Opera 11.x to 12.x for "WHY"
    when "HTML 5" kicked in, new java-script engines had to be made
    i remember that Opera strugled with this, hence why later it laged behind Chromium/Safari back then

    what was implemented in processing JS with jumpt from HTML 4/CSS 2.3 to HTML 5/CSS 3 - i don't know, but it was heavy
    and now you get everything RAM eating bullshido
    true, RAM problem is not existant nowdays... heck my PC is 12 years old now but i have 8 GB RAM and browsing is not problem
    but as quoter above said, back then we had 1 GB or 1.5 GB of it and WTF happened

  5. there is a big shift at now-days idiocracy / de-evolution
    i guess it is only natural that we crave to stay in time when things were better for ourself's

    i still save some toys from my pre-teen years
    last week i bought a board game i last played back in 1995 :P (they don't make them anymore)
    i hold to my Sega Genesis (and bunch of cartriges) in closet, even if i know i will never power it up again
