I thought 95 was better than 98 - faster and less bloated. Just the USB support was lacking but OSR2 fixed that mostly.
2000 was definitely better than XP in my book. Of course ME was a complete and total turd. But it was only built in a couple months after MS changed their mind about Windows 2000 personal edition.
But really in my book XP was Windows 2000 Bloatware Edition. Same with 98 over 95.
With Vista it went the opposite way though, Vista was all glossy/bloaty and Win7 fixed that. And don't start me on Windows 8, that was just a terrible POS on the desktop, with its huge start screen. Nice idea on a tablet, terrible on the desktop.
