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!
- The inner workings of the system are completely obscured from the end user with no option to make them visible. System hangs on boot? Just keep guessing what the problem is. No verbose booting is possible.
