How could you not mention Windows XP in this comment. MS kept up support for a surprisingly long time while encouraging everyone to upgrade (and rightly so), but even 5 years after they completely dropped support, they had to release a security update to protect against a widespread attack because a ton of organizations were still using XP.
Sure, that works, too. The reason I went with 7 is that it’s well covered in the portion of the Steam survey one can easily check, but this type of lackadaisical transition leading to an increasingly frustrated Microsoft is such a staple of Windows history in general.
