This is a 100% ignition topic, but... the basic Windows design
is one of the better things about Windows. Some of the features
the kernel part has are still not implemented in Linux,
for instance...

What really sucks is the user space part. The more close to
the user, the worse it gets.

I'd be careful with statements like that. Yeah, it is really
cool to criticize Windows (those cool Linux hacker
guys do this too), but I hear such statements usually from
folks which could not provide any arguments to support
such claims.

Sorry, no offence intended.
