for me, you are the 1 who seems like an ******, if computer is not meant to be user-friendly, we will all be still in the "DOS" ages, and no more technological advances, banks, and all other will still be using hand writthen records. And also if Computer is NOT originally meant to be used by other people, why company bothered to sell computers?? people can just make on their own! Computers and Software ARE meant to be user-friendly. That why the university do have courses like Human Factors and usability, and they do involve how to make better software. Although, I would not use Vista, because it is too bloated, but I would not telling other NOT to make those kind of software, because is useless for you! People making software because they need one and the market don't have those kind of software. And Also, calling others who don't know much computers are ****** is not good either, I don't think you know how computers works straight from you born, you still have to go though n00b stages. If you are that leet, why don't you just stick with DOS?? and why use XP, 2000 or something like that??? and heck also, Linux can be both user-friendly as you want and non user-friendly as you want. you don't have to install X-Window, GNome, KDE, etc. what you need is only install the command-line interface like slackware, and is that enough for you so-called ****** people???
