Windows 7 is the best new version though I didn't try windows 10 yet, Windows XP is the best older version IMO.
Windows 10 is awesome, tried it for a while and the graphics are neat
Why is there only one choice?
I use unix (solaris, aix), BSD (freebsd), linux (SLES12, debian, ubuntu, opensuse) and windows (7) on a daily/weekly basis.

Used Windows 7,8,XP,ME and XP was the best at it's time, now I think Windows 7 is the most decent version.
windows is better than others, though new things will come but windows is still best.
I am using windows 7. It is the best 
Windows 7, Very efficient IMO.
I'm sticking to windows 7. I don't like the interface of windows 8. As for windows 10, I heard about privacy issues a lot, so a no for now.
I have grown fond of the Windows 7 operating system. It reminds me of the windows 98 system we all loved, but with out all the bugs that Windows ME had and Windows 8 has. I have not tried Windows 10 yet, but i was warned off of it.
I am using windows 8.1 operating system and I can say that it has served me well over the past one year. One thing I love about this operating system is that it is very stable even when compared to the just released windows 10. I am a programmer and i know that the software once in the market always experience bugs that take time to fix them. Therefore, it is the time to have your windows 8.1 with no much drama.
Windows 3.1 with original mouse!
Its not even in the list of option lol.
if your computer runs windows 3.1, you might just considering a light weight linux derivative like puppy linux which could run perfectly with just a 256 of RAM.
It don't even need a drive if you want it to load on RAM itself. This linux is fast and can work well with old computers, it has tons of flavors as well so you'd have some options.
Not sure on the processor, but: based on the preformance f old computers. Just get a raspberry pi. You could also run most linux operating systems off of Optical drives (DVD RW), pen drives or SD Cards, or most other storage mediums. Based on the OS, there are probably less BiOS settings to change in order to run the different Operating Systems. I also understand that, if the computer is ARMv3 type it will run raspbian. And most are ARMv7, which runs normal operating systems, such as Linux: Ubuntu and Windows.

I can appreciate where you are coming from, but you are nutz!! That system sucked and I hated waiting for that system to load anything I wanted to do. Even organ trail ran slow as hell. I hope you are joking about this. Windows 3.1 with original mouse!
What was the original mouse?
Sounds like it ran of floppies or something similar of bad technology!
I know that windows XP, VISTA and some before came with a ball at the bottom that moved something in order to create a signal from the mouse to go to the computer. Now they use light and receptors to detect movement. Somehow, people use touchscreen on computer too, it technically isn't a computer if it has a touchscreen (it's just a large tablet!)

Windows 10. Universal apps are good.

Its not so hot
Surprised to see most people using Windows in this thread.
I would have expected Linux distributions to be popular.

I am contented with Windows 7 Ultimate won't be upgrading anytime soon.
I am sorry, the system I would have choose n is not on here. I likes the Windows 98SE. That was one of the best systems they came out with and then they kept bringing out more and more crap. Now I am stuck with Windows seven until something better comes along.
That does not make much sense. 98SE might have been a good OS for its time, however you can't really compare it to the newer ones because of the lack of features (being outdated and such). Windows 7 is pretty great, especially compared to Windows 8 and Windows 10. Windows 10. Universal apps are good.
