Re: No warning
"Why do Microsoft find this stuff so hard to get right?!"
Simple: they don't actually get WORK done in the Halls of Redmond. At least, not what _I_ would call 'work'.
And as such, they can't POSSIBLY comprehend what REAL WORKING PEOPLE need a computer for, or how it's typically used.
Couple that with their desire to MONETIZE THE CUSTOMER, the general attitude that THEY own the hardware too, and the ARROGANCE that goes with being an effective MONOPOLY on operating systems.
Let us not forget GWX. That kinda says it all.
