They fattened up the products with features many people simply do not need.
I do not need a ribbon menu, i do not need the new style windows 7 start menu, i do not need popups asking me if i'm sure i want to do this.

Fine if some end Lusers need it, but i don't, so don't bloody force me to use the crap i don't need.
Because other then not needing that crap, i also do not want it. So, i don't upgrade, in fact i buy my pc's and i downgrade back to XP.
And when the day comes that i won't be able to find drivers anymore, then that will be the day that i choose my new OS with a completely open mind. I will toss all i know overboard, and i'll start from scratch... May be linux, may be Apple, maybe, but unlikely MS.
