Crafty wasn't it, Microsoft once had some very good programmers who wrote the VxDs to handle all that within Windows. I still think Windows 2000 was the best version ever.

Windows 2000 truly was the best windows version ever, except for two very minor points:

  - HTML integration in the file explorer
  - The system tray icons were limited to 16 colors
