Wow, you’re an ass.

XP was a disaster, security-wise. Vista was better conceptually but the tech was undercooked and win7 was basically a re-skin of vista plus some extra maturity due to time.

Then, there’s the entirety of the situation around those releases. Microsoft was so mismanaged under Ballmer that even though Windows 7 was maybe their best OS, it completely missed the smartphone revolution and set them back about a decade until they could be re-spun as a cloud technologies company.

Imagine how huge they’d be if they had successfully leveraged their desktop and business dominance to force their way on top of the mobile world.

CUPS is not driver software.

It’s a “printing system” that provides a web interface for configuration some of that configuration may require a vendor supplied config file.

“IPP Everywhere” (Internet Printing Protocol) is a print server (ie “sharing”) software serving the IPP communication protocol.

So the chain goes:

Hardware -> Firmware (if any)-> Driver-> Printing System -> Print sharing

Drivers are in the kernel, unless they’re not.
