I actually liked windows 7 quite a bit

Certainly better than where we are now but I never really loved it. It was to heavy for me, the search doesn't find files that are there reliably and the update system system sucked. Windows 7 always developed disk sucking WinSxS folder cancer, a particularly fatal disease during the early SSD era where space became a premium again.

It did have faster file copying though. I'd say it had 64-bit for more memory addressing but that was actually available with XP as well.
