We're really on the subject of software installation issues on OSNews lately, and this story, making its rounds on the internet, fits in quite well. Back in the day, during the antitrust lawsuits against Microsoft, Microsoft had to make a whole slew of corporate email public. In light of Gates' imminent withdrawal from Microsoft, SeattlePI dug up a little gem among these emails, one in which Bill Gates goes on a full-blown rant about the difficulties he had trying to download and install Windows MovieMaker, back in 2003.

Not really. The user part of the site is pretty much a sales pitch. Its the tech professionals that have to go there, and usually MS treats us like kings.
MS should be outsourcing the site to a web design firm. If they are already, they should fire that firm and hire another one.
