The OS is DOS. The GUI is Windows.

lol.  $7,000 for a laptop from 1993.  I think it's worth it.  I also believe in unicorns.  srsly.

[That's not a troll auction btw.  Somebody really thinks his old laptop is worth $7K.]

My unicorn ranch, on the other hand, is totally going to be a reality very soon.

I'll trade you an equally useless laptop for one of your unicorns...

Meanwhile in a laptop/windows/retro stuff enthusiast forum:

lol. A couple of hundred bucks for a piece of plastic. I think it's worth it.

[That's not a troll btw. Some guys really think those caps are worth the money.]

If it's not ≥XP, it may as well be DOS.
Hey now, Win2k was solid. Well, after Service Pack 4, anyway.
