It's frustrating as a computer engineer when I see people much smarter than myself trying to do simple things with computers and failing horribly. They understand that there is a learning curve, but can't comprehend the random behaviour of their computer. It makes me think as engineers we've got to do better than this. Conversely, one problem is that people buy the cheapest computer possible, and then don't understand why the operating system is hard to use and crashes, and the hardware is badly designed and of poor quality. There's a certain company that has decided to make excellent hardware, offer good support and a relatively sane operating system at a higher price than most computer systems. So sometimes you get what you pay for. :)
