    It's a real pity though because some of the UIs I find actually quite nice. But total form over function, zero consistency makes the whole UI Aero Glass effort just rubbish really. Zero to the power of negative infinity USABILITY.

    Now where did I put the recycle bin.... OH, THERE IT IS.





    Put it back in the oven. It ain't done yet.

    This is a shame. At one time Word was a fine program. They're running it into the ground. Occasionally I have to use it and it looks like they are making harder and harder.

    Anything after MS Office 2000 is total garbage IMHO. Just additional annoyances, bloatware, crapware, and what not.

    Obviously someone has a lot of partitions.



    What the hell? They're still using that rubbish "each physical drive has a letter" bullshit?

    Heh. What if some of those partitions are actually just folders? That is, in Vista you can make a folder a partition and give it a drive name??



    HMMM.... Those bluish bars filling up seem to remind me of something. Hmm, can't put my finger on it, where have I seen that before, I wonder?

    That is messed up. 7 steps to delete a shortcut !!??!!! And on top of that, they messed up Word, and made the system impossible to use.



    Slightly off-topic, anyone know where I can get a copy of Vista? I want to see this for myself.
