What's wrong with windows as of Windows 7?

If you are someone who invests in learning how to use your tools, nothing. Technically, I think they've done a great job in fixing the issues of Windows past.

It is still a system for experts though. Just the other day I used Windows (7) for the first time since Windows 2000 was all the rage and found it to be an incredibly confusing experience. I almost felt like I had never touched a computer before.

Since this article seems to be directed at consumers, most people there are not experts, and that is where Windows is failing.




Windows may be an OS for experts, but only as far as those are experts on Windows.

Anyone who has used anything else for any significant amount of time would rather have a root canal treatment than returning to Windows.
