Story: Top 10 Windows Vista annoyances
Arguable point of view about Control Panel
On the first sight I thought the same as you about the control panel usage. But my opinion changed radically when I discovered (rather quickly actually) that you just have to shortly describe your need in the search textfield (the focus is on it by default) to almost instantly get access to it. Want to change your proxy settings? Simply type "proxy" in the search field and it gives you direct access to the Internet Settings, and also selects the right tab! Ok, it doesn't select the network settings button for you but it's definitely more user friendly than digging into the several control panels then tabs to get access to the setting, mostly when you don't have a clue where to start looking for, isn't it?
