@kedawa

And that's what makes the whole "user friendliness" argument impossible to resolve. Most GUIs are user friendly but they take their own approach at things. If you fight that approach then the OS seems non-user friendly, if you go along with it then it is user friendly...

You must be talking about me and Windows. I always use Windows like I knew it for less than a year, while I have to use it since 1995. All other OSs just seem fine.

That doesn´t mean I like everything about Mainframes, Mac OS, Java or Linux, but at least I understand why it is the way it is.

right Sometimes a given system just won't make sense, and sometimes everything BUT a given system makes no sense at all!
