Of course, I'm not blinded by anything nor do I ever wish to recover from disliking the fat, bloated, unreliable, OS. The reality is that Windows will soon be dead and forgotten - just like it's users.

It's been a real bitch-fest. People have lived with Windows for so long that it's all they know and can do and they're resistant to change.

It is the younger generation that's driving technological change. If you can't understand that, the current trends won't make any sense to you. My guess is that you're going to hold on to that old nag until one of you drops dead. That's fine with me although it does make me feel a little sad.

You guys don't. Mostly, you guys like to be negative and just say "no" without explanation. That's the tactics of a toddler and it stems a mind that has some difficulty in focusing.
