Windows

Definition: Microsoft operating system developed in the mid 1980's to provide a graphical user interface. Early versions were shells sitting on top of MS-DOS and were not true Operating Systems. Later versions, starting with Windows NT, used a completely new operating kernel and had to emulate MS-DOS instead of requiring it.
Usage: Windows 7 is the best Microsoft Windows yet.
