The Windows Iceberg Explained

Ғылым және технология

To match with the release of Windows 11, I wanted to gather information about this Operating System, so I created The Windows Iceberg, containing 40 subjects spread into 5 tiers.

    That's not true, If the program was looking for the version then it would look for the NT version and Windows 9 would have been based of NT and not 9x. This was just a hoax by someone and not true

    Another reason Windows 9 might have been skipped is because at the time of release of 10, Microsoft wanted to make windows 10 the last windows version and keep updating it basically forever, hence windows sun valley, basically that windows 10 update which in the end became windows 11 but the theory in this video also makes a good point from a marketing perspective

    Really good and accurate. Some topics that came to mind while watching are "windows refund day", the Internet Explorer vs Netscape legal issues in the 90s, and Microsoft having to help Apple stay in business at one point (I think it was because, without Apple, they had no competition and might have been broken up due to having a monopoly on the market)

If you want to replicate this: Open "ODBC Data Sources (64-bit)" Click "Add" and then click on "Microsoft Access Driver" Click "Finish", you should see a menu Click "Select", and now you should see what remains of Windows 3.1's File Manager.

    From my life experience, deja vu happens in a moment which lines up with something you dreamed about before, no matter how long ago. I came to this realization when I was at a summer camp 2 years ago. I was the 2nd day there and it was already time to sleep. I was sitting on my bed when I got deja vu and I swore that I had the exact same moment in a dream (probably when I was 6).

    You should have included Windows RT, even bigger failure than Windows phone, Windows RT 8/8.1 tablets with only apps available being from the store, failed for exactly the same reason as Windows Mobile that being, barely any apps, Windows 10 in S mode is basically the same concept but on x86 devices so you can opt out, interesting devices tbh, ARM processors with Tegra GPUs and all that, had both the original Surface RT and 2, and they would be great devices if they werent limited to the store. Also there is a leaked Windows 10 build for RT, which could also be an interesting point on the list.
