I agree with you there. Windows has plenty of flaws, but the majority of complaints are down to nothing more than user ignorance.
The ironic thing is that so many also talk about how "intuitive" AmigaOS is, without bothering to consider that the intuitiveness comes from familiarity.
I can only half agree. Amiga is intuitive because it's simple. To install a shared library you copy it to LIBS:, for example. No more, no less. On Windows, the concepts of registry and the infamous "dll hell" are not intuitive to anyone, even people who are familiar.
I think the fact that people who have used Windows for almost a decade have to re-install a whole program to compensate for a missing file or a broken registry key says everything about Windows we need to know. And it will never, ever improve, either, just hide itself under yet another layer of complexity to make it better in the short term and worse in the long term.
Most of the people here will jump on Window's fairly massive faults because they want to believe that it's crap. I however, think it
is crap. And that, of course, is an opinion, not a fact.
