There's no reason it's so complicated to do something on a PC
Of course there are reasons why it's complicated to do things on a PC. A PC is an open-ended tool, that's why. One person might playing world of warcraft, while someone else might be using emacs to write a clojure web-app, while someone else might be using google sketchup to design a floorplan, while someone else is chatting on skype. Meanwhile I am using my PC to emulate the original sony playstation and post to hacker news, and my friend is watching a movie on Netflix.
Computers get simpler to use when people solve problems in permanent ways. They get harder to use when new challenges expose fundamental limitations of the existing design (IE the design was TOO simple).
