A little tech rant. (Warning opinionated opinion is opinionated)

Modern Tech. Gotta love it when it's run by the 'Smartest Guys in The Room' who -tells- me what I want and need.

You can't teach an old dog new tricks? It has been that way, more or less each version, as long as I have had to deal with them, A Very Long Time™. I was ranting about this just last night. I had to explain to my Mom how MS was trying to protect her from herself, even though she had done nothing wrong, but all it achieved was to slow her down and make her angry. She spends a fair amount of time on the computer and it is a big source of pleasure for her. She is intelligent and, even though well beyond the age of the average user, fairly good at using the computer. So, to see her mad enough to say she wanted to just quit using it altogether makes me sad and mad and certainly seems like MS could be doing better. They have certainly trampled on better systems from years ago that I would still prefer to this day.
