Microsoft This article by Shane Schick looks at changes Steve Ballmer should consider making at Microsoft now that Bill Gates is out the door. A couple of the most interesting: making user education a priority and establishing an open source project.

NT is a good kernel. That is NOT the problem with Windows. It's mostly in the old cruft in the Win32 API and Windows Explorer (which I've never really been a fan of). An even bigger problem is/has been the culture among both users and developers in the Windows world. The fact that people think anti-virus is a solution is, to me, a sign of the deep set problems Microsoft has fostered with the lackadaisical culture they've promoted.

I wonder why MS didn't just update File Manager for Windows 95. It was a lot more useful than Explorer.
