Vindows Wista
This is an article about Vindows Wista, hence the title and opening words. I could have started talking about why metaphysics is better for you, or which candidate in the 2024 West Lincolnshire by-election is better for you, or what medicine is better for you, or indeed, how Indonesian Wasps breed in 3-month clusters of over 150, but since this is about Vindows Wista... well, I'll leave to you the conclusion.
About It[edit | edit source]
Vindows Wista is the version of Windows Vista that was sold in Eastern Europe. It was the follow up to 2004's Vindows Wodka, and indeed 2002's Vindows X-Cheese. They decided it wasn't Eastern European enough to sell the original version to the IT-hungry Russian, Polish, Ukrainian and Belarussian markets. So they made it more stereotypical! Some changes:
- Recycle Bin is now called Yugoslavia Bin.
- Start has been changed to Drink wodka.
- The folders: Documents is now Propaganda, Pictures is now Illicit material, and Music is now Anything But Ebdo Mihemed: Volume 2.
There was a second version made in 2010 which has different names depending on the country, in Poland it was sold as Vindows Kurwa.
