Whenever I have to use Windows, I am reminded of the things I dislike: - The fonts. Sorry, but you can defend Windows all you want, but I have a much easier time reading on a Mac than I do on a Windows machine. - The malware. Holy shit. This computer is trying to fleece me from the get go! - Some defaults make no sense, but the only way to disable them means having to go deep in the OS, change a setting, and then restart the computer. Holy shit! What if I blew something up?! - Since trust was broken early on, I'm forced to install 3rd party software for nearly every task. - The whole thing feels corporate, but maybe I was never the target audience anyway!
