Wow! I had no idea George Orwell was posting on here!

I think theres a difference between stating that PC's are too complicated for the average user, and that maybe a different approach is needed, and advocating the hiring of the gestapo.

While we're on the subject, anyone complaining of ever more problematic PC's, couldn't possibly be working in the employ of the Gates creature. After all, the issues mentioned were around endless patches, AV, upgrades, incompatibility, the need for firefox. Would a mouthpiece for MS be saying that these problems exist, or telling us they would be fixed in the next release?

I think some of you need to go on a march or something. or else possibly explain why the issues discussed aren't causing a problem, or even suggest an alternative?
