Happy new year!
I recently read Windows 7: Mojave My Ass, an article by Jason Perlow about his experiences with Windows 7 Build 7000 (Beta 1).
Here’s an extract:
To make matters even worse, the “Run” option is no longer directly accessible from the Start Menu as a default behavior, you have to get to it via a Search. Once you get to Run via Search, you can click on it to execute any commands you like, such as the CMD.EXE prompt, and you can drag it onto the Desktop, but you can’t drag it onto the new Taskbar, like you can do with any add-on program, such as Firefox.
Is this what computing has turned into? Will we really allow Microsoft to have our Operating System-reviews to be reduced to OMG-I-can’t-click-here-rants?
I mean, what must their kernel developers think of that? I bet I’d be extremely jealous of the Linux kernel developers, who at least seem to have a lot of fun after a new release. :-)
In my opinion, operating systems are more than just desktop environments, and should be judged as such.
