Things change and evolve in the computer world faster than pretty much anywhere else. You still want graphics cards on an AGP interface too? How about IDE Ribbons because they're familiar? Were you reluctant in giving up floppy disks for CD-r?

You've accepted the idea of using the operating system that's synonymous with GUI and you still complain about it.

Windows 7 is a fantastic leap over XP in nearly every way. Even over Vista.

People freak out because Windows has so many critical updates and insecurities yet you DEMAND that they provide backward compatibility from older OSes to preserve your environments. You can't have both. The backwards compatibility is what cripples Windows as much as it keeps it the #1 OS on the planet.
