Hi alexw,

It's ironic that AOS is listed first, and windross is listed last, and also is most hated.

(I know, I know, it's listed alphabetically. )


I find it amazing that OS/400 is 19 to 19!!!!! The odds of that happening are enormously AGAINST!

@alexw

Cool - so no one thinks Amiga OS sucks? I'd love to be believe that but there must be someone out there, surely?

They dare not say for fear of reprisals.

Ok. Going back to my happy place now.

Interesting that VMS got so many "rules" hits too. But objectively, does Windows *really* suck that much these days? I'll probably be driven out of town for saying this but XP is quite nice - certainly far better than Windows 9x in the "bad old days."

/me runs around dodging the bricks being thrown in my direction!

"Better than Windows 9x" means absolutely nothing at all.

I hope you realise by what you have just said that you have just added a vote to the Am*ga Sucks vote

The vote works by asking the search engine to look for the words
"[operating system] sucks", so by your very quote you have just said that Amiga OS does.

You can however say that Windows Sucks as many times as you like

I must cast my vote then:

Windows sucks, AmigaOS rocks!

XP is a vast improvement over 9x and I use it everyday (for better or for worse) because of the "world of software and devices" it uses. It is still fundamentally flawed in a lot of areas though and compared to OS X Tiger it is a joke. Tiger is some 3 and a half years newer though.

@Thread

I've noticed that there is not mention of Morph OS / Pegasos though.

insert troll bait cutting remark here

I must agree with you that Tiger is a lot better than XP which is really light years ahead of '98 but I personally feel that Tiger just doesn't cut the mustard compared to OS4 which surprised me a quite a bit because I was expecting a lot more from the most modern OS to date.

Iow Amiga rules and OSX and Windows suck!

Yep, really

As quoted on the page just under the graphs:

About the Operating System Sucks-Rules-O-Meter This operating system quality and approval metric is based on a periodic AltaVista search for each of several operating systems, directly followed by "sucks", "rules", or "rocks".

What really counts is the rules/sucks ratio which is 39/0=infinite for AmigaOS!

Looks like MorphOS didn't get included.

Anyone need a brick?

Yes, let's hope the doom master/ RetroGeek doesn't find out about this!

Plenty of people are prepared to insult Amigas to insult me, rather than criticise it.

Yes, the only thing that can make Windoze eXcrement Pee look nice, is an older version of windoze.

XP is certainly better than any of its predecessors, but it still STINKS!

Just checked the meters again, and there's still no counts for AmigaOS on the "suck-o-meter."

I think it's because, on that link it's quoted as "AmigaOS," while dan.hutch put a space between Amiga and OS.
