I find it amusing that some peoples' OSs appear to give them
stiffies.

Yeh, I find it amusing too, just like those who get stiffies whenever
Apple comes out with an expensive new product. :-)

Unless the OS is actually a (real, not just perceived or religous)
problem, the whole point is the APPLICATIONS !

Dead right. I'm not only amused but annoyed they find it necessary to
mess with the desktop interface every time they bring out an update,
when all I want is the fastest way to get to the applications (with
support for all the new hardware technolgy since the last release).
Windows 8 sure aint it IMO :-(

Fortunately it's mostly easily-fixable for free.

Yes, not from MS of course, even the Win 8.1 update is pathetic, and Classic
shell is just a patch for a problem that should never have existed IMO. Give
touchscreen users the option by all means, but no need to remove what
already works for everybody else.
