Last week's column was basically a rant about things that bothered me about Ubuntu's GNOME/Linux combination. Besides the usual 'I do not experience the problems you have, so you must be an anti-GNOME troll!' and of the course the ever-present 'How on earth can you complain about Free software!', it did what is was supposed to do: bring problems under developer's direct attention (for instance, Evolution's UI maintainer emailed me, asking for more clarification). Now it's Apple's turn. Here is a list of problems I find the most annoying about Apple's Mac/MacOS.

The only reason I can see for not removing configuration files would be that I'm uninstalling an application in order to reinstall it, and therefore do not want to lose my configuration.
That is a very good point. However, there are times when you are uninstalling and want to get rid of a bad configuration as well; in other words, you want to wipe it completely before reinstalling. All OSes have a hard time with this, but Apple does indeed make it more difficult than others.
