Mum tries out Windows Longhorn Build 4074 (2004) is the 30th episode in the OSFirstTimer series.
Description[edit | edit source]
Once again Diana uses 3 different computers at once. On one laptop computer she has windows xp (2001) and on the other Windows Vista (2006/2007). She is testing Windows Longhorn Build 4074 on the main desktop computer while comparing it to where it came from (Windows Xp) to where it was headed (Vista). The version of longhorn she is testing is one of the last versions of longhorn based on xp before the development reset in 2004. Since xp couldn't cope with all the stuff microsoft wanted to add to longhorn they had to start fresh and build longhorn on windows server 2003.

The mother in this video uses Windows XP (2001) as her main OS. Would you like to see her try out Linux, Mac, Windows, OS/2 or other operating systems through history such as AmigaOS? Then give your suggestions in the comments section. Give this video lots of likes, views, favorites and comments if you want my mum to try out other operating systems. I am open to any operating system suggestions you give especially if these videos go semi-viral (over 100,000 views). This channel is dedicated to me "introducing" people (mum, dad, me) to different operating systems they have never used before and leaving them to suffer in confusion struggling to do anything in an unknown computer environment... or see if these other operating systems are better than Microsoft Windows.
