Bar graph of Windows versions. Most are unreadably small, 95 and 98 are visible, and Windows 2000 is the only tall column.

Where is XP and Vista on this chart. Millennium edition is missing but we don't count That one anyway.

They're all NaN and were discarded at outliers... Yeah, they're that bad compared to 2000.

I counted it. They said it was 'more stable'. It was not. I used to know my CD license code off by heart.

This one's coincidentally accurate, though (relatively; 8 should be in the negatives, or dropped off the chart altogether like ME, and 98 and 98SE should be split).
