Yep.
Also goes back to ...
3.1 - dreck
3.11 - good
95 - dreck
98 - good
ME - lower than whale feces
XP - great
Vista - dreck (although it does have some good points if you have enough memory to run it)
7 - great
8 - dreck (although for tablets, it's probably fine - but for PC's? Hell no)
Realize also that I'm only talking about 1990 for the computer I referenced that was 20 MHz (and had a physical button that I could push to 'overclock' it to 40 MHz. That's 22 years - which in the grand scheme of human history is just not that long ago. Right now the most advanced PC I have (and we have 5 of them) is the one I use with my laser - it's a quad core, 2.4 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, with a 1 GB video card ... compare those numbers.
That's like inventing the airplane and then landing a man on the moon in less than 70 years ... oh, wait... :P
