Windows blows

And not in a good way.

I am either stupid, or Windows is the worst operating system ever.

Really, it isn't as if I am some stupid user, I am a freaking programmer, for crying out loud. Unix, Linux, OS X, none of these faze me. But put me to getting third-party hardware peripherals and associated non-existent, shady drivers to work under Windows and see me literally reduced to tears, esp. after the five millionth blue screen of death.

Y'know, everyone says that Windows sucks fetid whale dick, but apart for a few days when I had the Blaster virus, I've never had any problems with it. I use Win2000 and it even copes with me running Word, PSP, Dreamweaver, IE6 and three chat clients simulaneously.

I guess being married to a systems analyst pays off.

Sorry you're having problems, I'll send good vibes. *concentrates*

Thanks for the good vibes.

I think Windows ME is just dumb.

Yeah, UG ran WinME for a while. Not very long though, so I suspect he had problems with it too.

Yes, Windows ME sucks big donkey dongs. But XP really isn't all that bad.

Yes, well, getting them to upgrade (from ME, or 98 upstairs) would as difficult as trying to get George W. to support gay marriage.
