Yeah, what he said! There's way too much bloat in OSes these days -- for very little in the way of visible advantage. What's wrong with having a slick, bare-bones OS that zips along and lets you add stuff to it as you please?
I could do my daily tasks in DOS on a 386 all those years ago much faster than my Vista-laden Pentium-something-or-other can do them today. And this is progress? All you get in return is some fancy graphics. Big friggin' deal.
