The perfect operating system
,----[ Gist ]
| 1. In the start menu in the image are names listed like Jasc
| Software, Cyberlink Power DVD, ArcSoft Showbiz, Veritas Software,
| Intervideo XPack. Say What?!..
|
| 2. The process of finding information in today?s operating systems
| (except Tiger's spotlight) looks like this:
|
| 1. Define where to look for the requested information
| 2. Search for the requested information
| 3. Find the requested information
|
| 3. When a user sees this screen he is definitely not in has best mood.
| So why bother him with a question? Asking this question once would be
| ok, but apparently XP has no long-term memory and keeps asking the
| same question over and over.
|
| 4. Internet Explorer asks the user if he want to run the ActiveX
| control of an unverified publisher called Microsoft Corporation.
| Wait a minute, what Is an ActiveX control and why is Microsoft an
| unverified publisher? Can't I trust my own operating system?
