I used MS-DOS on older computers many years ago. But, I mostly used MS-DOS to play games, and use educational programs related to math and English. I think some people may of bought used and older MS-DOS computers when Windows 3.1 came out because used DOS computers were cheaper to buy. Windows may also be less reliable than MS-DOS back in the past because new tech is usually less reliable.

The internet, watching video, MP3 songs, and CD-ROM discs were not popular or invented many years ago, so a more affordable MS-DOS computer can be good enough for most users in the past.

so I been seeing some discussions that people think the next OS from MS won't be called windows # at all, but a whole new name and look. That would be interesting.

I feel there is a possibility of Microsoft releasing a more lightweight mobile OS for mobile tablets like the iPad and Android tablets which mostly show apps in full-screen mode.

I think having both a mobile OS and desktop OS built-into one OS can be kind of slow on slower computers.

Microsoft can make a more lightweight OS which run better on slow tablets and PCs.

I think Windows 10 S is not very lightweight because 10 S requires a Intel Pentium 4 CPU, 1GB RAM and 16GB storage. I think Android and Java flip phone OS is more lightweight and can run on slower devices like cheap smartphones and tablets.

I thought S was as light weight as it got, because isn't the MS surface supposed to be a tablet?

I think the Microsoft Surface is more of a touchscreen All-In-One PC with a removable keyboard cover. Some of the MS Surfaces have Intel i7 CPUs.

Windows XP is probably the most lightweight Windows OS which can use newer software like MS Office 2007, and older versions of Google Chrome. I know Windows XP can run on computers with 256 MB RAM, and older Intel Celeron CPUs.
