If you really want to screw with it; Get DooM working on it! Not DooM 3, but the originals. They don't play nice with 7 so I'm assuming 8 will probably be about the same.

From what I understand about the Windows Kernel, the "hybrid" is basically something they came up with when they hired the guy who worked on VMS to get Windows NT going WAY back in the day. I don't read to much into it, as verifying this stuff would be next to impossible, but apparently the guy from VMS was actually complaining about the "working conditions" he was given...

I find this to be funny. The guy worked on VMS and complained about how Microsoft wanted him to do Windows NT. VMS is one of the shittiest OSs ever done so the fact that he complained about NT I thought was just funny lol.

I mean seriously; Who the **** wants VMS?
