There most probably smart people at Microsoft. Most are in the
marketing division though. But talking about GUI and Windows the list
on Hall of Shame is veeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrryyyyyy long.
When I said that Start should be implemented was because the foot on
the panel is nice as is. It has a much better structure as Games,
Network, Graphics etc are divided into categories. Not just one long
list of the apps you have installed.

No it should not be installed unless one chooses so... Thus one can
also choose not to download it.

Making it harder than actually using the app.

| They matter, thus my recent modifications to the X Screenplay concept.
God! I did not say they did not matter! I said it was another issue
and thus referring to the argument. Of course they matter.
