Deal with the top tag - citations needed.
ONE (1)! paragraph (and a short one) for the lead? Check out WP:LEAD. I'd expect at least three, maybe four large paras here.
Image captions which are fragments shouldn't have periods.
Fair use rationale needed for ALL fair use images.
Deal with the [citation needed]'s. There are many.
"Long File Names"? This is English, not German, so remove those caps!
"Hybrid 16/32-bit operating systems" section unreferenced completely.
"64-bit operating systems" also.
Remove spaces between citations, per WP:CITE.
Avoid in-line citations as there are in the History section.
Timeline of releases section is unreferenced.

Basically, cutting a short story shorter, this needs work on prose, citation, WP:MOS and is well short of WP:GA. Work out the basics and then come back to PR (one article at a time) and you never know, GA may be a breeze. Good luck. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
