.... RealPlayer
Intentionally malware-loaded piece of shit! No wonder AOL uses it.

It boggles me that all of you people hate windows so much, and I've been using it for like, 15 years and have never had a problem.
I dont understand it!

i dont hate windows..
i've even had experience with linux/macintosh/unix and i've been using windows since 3.1..
i do have a deep seeded hatred for windows ME, though.
that was the buggiest OS they've had (in my experience) and it would crash nonstop..
i finally went back to win98 second edition until win2k pro came out.. that was such a glorious day!
xp was pretty rough before the service packs..
i'm pretty impressed with vista. haven't had a problem with it and it looks sexy on my 32" samsung :P
i really hate itunes though..

Good, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought ME was the cast off bastard son of the windows world. I didn't find 98se much better either. I was plesantly surprised with win2k, and well, they havent been able to better that yet.

Realplayer and Quicktime
Windows ME was also very crappy! I like 2000/XP. There is a lot that could be better and I can talk for hours about crappy Microsoft things, but XP does most things I want.

Windows ME
agreed...
you could turn that shit on, and in a day or so it would inevitably crash without the user even executing any program or doing anything...
and if you actually tried to use it for something... watch out. Better save that paper every 5 minutes

As long as you stay part of the Microsoft family, and buy Microsoft happy hardware, and buy Microsoft software, and play the way Microsoft wants you to play, and you don't try to talk to anybody outside of the Microsoft family, and don't mind paying inflated monopolistic prices then Windows is perfect for you. Unfortunately, most of us don't fit the above mold, and Microsoft does everything their monopolistic might will allow in order to force us back into the Microsoft fold. Microsoft is the school yard bully. If you are friends with the bully, then the bully doesn't seem so bad.
From a professional standpoint, Microsoft has done more to harm the computer industry than all other companies combined. Their idea of innovation is to buy up everything that they can, regardless of their desire to use it, just to avoid possible future competition. Rather than simply ignore industry standards, they change the standards for their own use, breaking compatibility with everybody else. They destroy anybody that tries to compete against them, thus nobody will invest in companies that directly compete against Microsoft. I could go on for hours...
