WinUAE exposing how crappy Windows is

[Arkhan]

There are plenty of apps out there, including big name apps that offer "portable" versions, as Arkhan says, a lot of games are going this way.

the reason for this is mostly because of the patch process most games do now.

You install the base game and have patches over the net.  So they try to make the game install-free.  The base game install is usually just copying files from one thing (CD) to the other (HDD directory).

Did you buy all these softwares, or did you lolpirate them.

However if you actually "use it" Windows has a lot more problems.  Since you work in a little box outside of the reality real techs work in, I'll forgive you for not knowing what the real world is like.

Man, someone ate some Ignorance w/ a side of Condescension for breakfast this morning.

You'd be surprised how much stuff people do at work on work computers.  

also, given that I am officially my family's computerfixer, and that I've dealt with at least 20 of their machines/mishaps by now, and they've never required a full blown wipe.    These are computers used in the real world.  Every day.

i think maybe you should just give up and stop talking, because you're just digging yourself a huge hole with a tombstone marked FAIL.

I'm just saying, we all have a different perspective which is based on the corner of the world we see.

The corner you see is empty and has just you in it I think.

See, look at your post. You are easily 10 times smarter than me.  You know Windows is a pain in the ass, often.  

Also, either you're a slow learner, or you are just plain clueless.   Every OS is a pain in the ass.  They all have things we don't like that get in the way.  They are all usually pretty easy to deal with.  They then stop becoming pains in the ass.

Kinda like that registry.  If you'd just keep your misinformed fingers out of there, you'd be set!
