Things to Hate About Windows

Missing Functionality

  • No Secure Shell (SSH) client or server in base system
  • Although there is a CLI (cmd.exe) its complete lack of capabilities and sophistication renders it virtually useless
  • Inability to mount, burn, create or otherwise manipulate ISO or other disk images

Annoyances

  • Hopelessly disorganized file system makes properly maintaining a Windows installation an exercise in futility
  • Changing IPv4 settings while an Ethernet interface physically has a connection causes Windows to hang for several minutes while it pretends the task given to it is in some way complicated. (At least in XP, haven't confirmed this on Vista)
  • Product Activation - Users of Windows are all filthy software pirates until proven otherwise, nice!
