Not been on Win for a long time, but isn't Win 7 generally regarded as the best/most stable?

I think they mean 'odd' as in 'every second one' rather than odd version number.

E.g: 11 - bad, 10 - good, 8 - bad, 7 - good, Vista - bad, XP - good, etc, etc.

Windows ME - wretched...kernel faults every 1 of 3 boots on a fresh install!

I co-manage about 150 Windows machines at my org, I'm in no hurry to try Windows 11 ATM.

Not native speaker, this is indeed what I meant :)
Odd like “every other release”, not “is the version number not divisible by 2”
