Windows "I've been looking at the 'My desktop OS'-articles, and found that I'll have to be the one writing one for Windows XP. To be honest, Windowx XP is very close to being usable on the desktop. I say very close, because it's not so out of the box. There is a few issues, however and many of them arises when you need to reinstall. You do need to reinstall Windows from time to time - it's just a fact of life!"

There are a lot of ways to get infected by a virus without opening any mail or visiting any site that are obviously of a shady nature.

Windows may not be for morons (aka "computer illiterate"), but it is sold and widely accepted as such.
Then people like you and me have to provide tech support for their family members, which is something that I hate. Why should I waste my time because microsoft cannot meet any reasonable expectation of stability and security ?
