This is an excellent observation, very true for me, and possiblly the 
root of much of my Windows frustration.

This I don't know because I use it either at home for personal use, or 
on machines where someone else pays for the license.

And, Yes, I did forget about the bastard child, Windows ME; that was 
truly awful.

We haven't even touched on that tangled morass of configuration 
parameters called the resistry, yet, either.

So, fashionable or not, we who hate Windows generally have pretty good 
reason to do so...
