I've been working on filling in the gaps in this page from what I know about Windows. There's still more I can do to clean up the tables, and I will work on it as time allows. Wrldwzrd89 12:22, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Random Comments

I'm not really into making edits yet, but it does seem weird that a table comparing MSW distributions would have a column for License/Source Model. Just a little redundant and unnecessary if one is only comparing windows products, no? 199.91.34.33 04:28, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DOS-based

Windows 1.0-3.11 aren't based on DOS. They're programs that run from DOS.

[edit] 32 bit version of Windows Vienna available??

Microsoft has already said that Windows Server 2008 is the last Windows server system to have 32 bit version. After that, the whole Windows server family will be published in 64 bit only

[edit] Windows Eight?

This is the first time I have heard of Windows Eight. Unless someone can cite this I think it should be removed.72.135.255.23 00:41, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sortable?

I'm sure that there's a good reason for the tables not being sortable, as in Comparison of web browsers#General information, as I have never seen this article before. Can someone clarify this for me? This comment is not intended to be sarcastic, but might be interpreted that way, hence this sentence. --Thinboy00 @920, i.e. 21:05, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
