No-one said their products are perfect but hey, show me a consumer-grade software package which is.


Software packages used to work absolutely perfectly before Windows came out.
Micro$haft singlehandedly changed the level of acceptible bugginess in software.

I remember the days when if an icon on your desktop changed for no apparent reason, you'd reinstall everything 'coz *something* must be horribly wrong with your system.
These days, you go "Oh... Maybe I need to reboot".

It's an accepted norm now that software will be buggy when released.

As for XP, it's by far the best Windoze ever released and is acceptible to use now (barely). But in no way can it be considered good. There are shitloads that piss me off about it.
* Multi user support is SLOW and extremely buggy (even by Micro$haft standards).
* The network stack is hideous (try copying stuff to an SMB share)
* USB handling is slow.
* True multitasking is still non-existant.
* Handling of resources STILL sux! Longest I've ever had an XP box up is 40 days before it got to an unacceptible
