Re: Sigh
I don't remember writing that Microsoft invented stuff.
Just that they spotted what the users wanted and gave it to them.
MS-Dos was beautiful after CP/M
Win 3.1x was very good for its time.
Word under MSDos was really easy to use, and Word for Windows was very good.
Win 9.x too.
And even XP
But somewhere along the lines we started getting delights such as "documents and settings" folders - as if the two things naturally sat together, and Office "ribbon" designed to stop users hiding away the clutter they'd never use, and Gawd 'elp us, WIn 8.1 for touch screens stuck on our non-touch computers.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
