Brian Frank 0 Posted May 21, 2001 So whats your beef with Windows? Mine is autoplay, I disable it cuz I hate it so much. I also hate those 'Assistants' in MS Office, and that CD Icon dude in EZ CD Creator, they're in my way. Share this post Link to post
CUViper 0 Posted May 21, 2001 I agree on the assistants - the office paperclip, winxp's merlin.... I always disable them asap. Autoplay is cool though, as long as it loads quickly. When it takes a while for the autoplay program to load, I get annoyed. Share this post Link to post
Cynan 0 Posted May 21, 2001 Autoplay, Assistants, Tool Tip boxes , stupid web-enabled folders... Grrrr I hate those. I hate having to disable them, set the folders view etc to how I want when I reinstall or setup a new user. Its just grr, grr, grr. I also hate those stupid personalised menus. When the icons in the tray double up, the clock doesn't right, the frames border isn't heigh enough. The stupid "Shortcut to" prefix, all those lil things that just drive you crazy. --Cynan.

felix 0 Posted May 21, 2001 What annoys me more than anything is that hardware companies write crappy drivers and pass them off to consumers quickly rather than taking the time to write good quality drivers that only have to be updated for a new OS, service pack or to take advantage of some improvments in DirectX. I give a big flip-off to hardware companies who think users will tolerate crap. At least when you use Linux, the drivers are a combination of hardware vendor and experienced hackers who nsure that the drivers are as bugless as possible. Crappy drivers = another reason for dual-booting Linux (I may switch in the near future) Share this post Link to post
DosFreak 2 Posted May 23, 2001 Writing an OS for the LCD. Upon Whistler install there should be an option for "Ignorant Home User" or "Worskstation". No split Personal/Professional. Share this post Link to post
