Gotta love microshaft, trying to decide whats better for us.

If its from microsoft and for windows, it HAS to be good for us, right?

BOOOO!  I love Windows Explorer.


But, one of my favorite features of Windows (and one of my most hated features of Apples) is that it doesn't crash whenever it feels like it.

I guess I'm the lucky one then, - still running WinMe on a machine from 2000, and it has NOT been formatted ever since!!!!!

They're wrong about that first one though. XP does have a DriveSpace system for the NTSF file system.

Supporting customers that had this piece of junk was a nightmare.  I'd quit my job and find another line of work before I'd go through that again.

Eh...Windows Explorer is great next to Mac's Finder.  Vista's breadcrumbs make navigation better.  Aero is nice, too.  Thumbnail previews are sweet.

ActiveX should never have been created, but as for USB sucking under W9X, can you tell me what other OS has USB working across that many peripherals when it first came out?  A price to be paid...

A lot of that other stuff I don't think most users even though about using.
