System 7 was the worst OS I've ever used
Shudder, that thing was S...L...O...W... Well, that's not totally true. It would crash really fast, really often. The whole System 7, 8, 9 line was absolutely terrible. It wasn't until Apple gave up trying to write their own OS after realizing that their developers sucked and used BSD that Apple finally caught up to where MS was in 1993 with NT.
