This is about 1/20th of my Programs folder under the Start menu. And guess what...I WANT TO SEE THE WHOLE THING!
Man I hate Microsoft. I realize that I use their software, but that's because the only software that they're better than is everyone else. If there were anything better, or I wanted to deal with *nix, I'd use that. However, I don't generally mind using Microsoft products* except for one thing. They keep hiding my shit from me. If I wanted to have a quarter of the functions that I would normally have, I'd downgrade to Windows 3.1 or whatever. However, if I'm going to spend my hard earned time breathing air to burn a copy of Microsoft Office, I damn well better get the performance I expect. And I don't expect to have to click a menu, an arrow, a picture of my big toe, and pledge my soul to Satan in order to use some retarded option. I mean, what's the point? As far as I can discern, it doesn't make anything any easier. In my case, I know for damn sure that it makes a whole lot of stuff more difficult. Oh, but it makes it more streamlined and pretty. Here's a question for you:
Trust me, it's not worth the hassle. I know that there are a lot of people in
the world that think that pretty things are good things, but let me be the one
to tell you that that's not always true. If I wanted to watch little patterns
move around the screen all the time, I'd turn on Cartoon Network or some other
stupid channel. I think that this new "feature" is just a powerplay
by Microsoft. Everytime you have to do a backflip while kicking yourself in the
face to see your real features, it's just drives home the fact that Microsoft
owns your soul a little more. While you go out and pay three hundred dollars
for an operating system, let me assure you that Microsoft is laughing. Laughing
all the way to the bank, a massive wad of cash in each hand. Please, join me
and send a scathingly sarcastic email to Microsoft, letting them know of your
displeasure at their choice of programming priorities. Not that it matters, since
they own your soul.
*: Other than the fact that any Microsoft operating
system is the most buggy piece of shit compilation of code to ever grace any
computer, ever. I recently bought a laptop (as in, last year), and as soon as
I opened it up, it froze. That's right, kiddies, brand new, Microsoft's newest,
biggest, baddest operating system, Windows XP, didn't work. Turns out they shipped
my OS with mouse drivers that weren't compatible with the OS. Thanks for that
giant kick in the nuts, Microsoft. No really, thanks. Burn in hell.
