'''Windows''' is the collective name for [[Microsoft]]'s immensely popular line of operating systems. As well as being widely used by businesses, Windows is the primary operating system [[PC]] games are developed for. It is the successor to [[MS-DOS]], which previously held a similar market share in both the home and business markets.

New versions of Windows generally maintain a high degree of compatibility with software developed for past versions of Windows (and limited compatibility with MS-DOS), and new software releases will often work on older versions of Windows. This changed with [[Windows Vista]]; some releases (such as [[Halo 2]]) are specifically designed to only work with Windows Vista, and so cannot be used on previous versions of Windows.

Windows is the collective name for Microsoft's immensely popular line of operating systems. As well as being widely used by businesses, Windows is the primary operating system PC games are developed for. It is the successor to MS-DOS, which previously held a similar market share in both the home and business markets.

New versions of Windows generally maintain a high degree of compatibility with software developed for past versions of Windows (and limited compatibility with MS-DOS), and new software releases will often work on older versions of Windows. This changed with Windows Vista; some releases (such as Halo 2) are specifically designed to only work with Windows Vista, and so cannot be used on previous versions of Windows.
