While I know you are just trying to make your sys admins lives easier, allowing Microsoft to automatically update your entire computer network remotely is NOT A GOOD IDEA. You'd think having your admins swamped with complaints and your computers comatose after every major push, you'd realize that you aren't saving any time or money.

That is the most GOD AWFUL user interface I've seen in a long time. And I work with home grown engineering interfaces every day, so I KNOW God Awful GUIs, oh yes I do. That blue on blue shit is burning my eyes and I've only been looking at it for 10 minutes. Tell me there's a way back to some classic view that doesn't eat up half my screen real estate with cutesy little menu icons .

Not work related but you can bite me too. You've only been out for how many years? And how many drivers DON'T exist for you yet? My printer, my scanner. I even had to hack some shit together to get sound to play through the bastard thing and that sound card is brand spanking new. I'm to old to be hacking drivers, you rat bastards. I thought the days of printing out massive hardware compatibilities lists were over but I was wrong. And if you think for a moment I'm installing Vista on ANYTHING I own, you're sadly mistaken. That sorry assed brain child has a minimum of two more years before I'll consider it anything close to stable. God, if it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to buy Photoshop again, I'd so have a Mac by now.
