I can't stand a fat OS that always includes more and more megabytes and bugs. I can't stand when a Word document becomes 8 times longer than original. I can't stand "program has performed illegal instruction and will be closed". I can't stand that almost every program PATCH the kernel. I can't stand products that need IE and doesn't work without it. I dislike to explore the Internet from the Recycle Bin. I dislike need to reboot the computer after software oinstallations. I dislike something like: - Daddy, please tell me what is a multitasking? - Let me finish formatting the diskette, boy. I hate when real/V86 mode program crash OS or hangs it up if all the interrupts has been disabled. I hate when OS hangs for some seconds during task switching. I hate to to continue this list because it seems to be infine long. And finally, Micro$~1 sells products faster than makes them. bye. Alexei A.
