> The complexity of today’s electronics and softwares is getting out of control. I saw this illustrated in motorcycle dashboards a few weeks ago. I have a nice analogue speedometer and tachometer, with a small digital display showing a couple of useful things like trip distance counter. Reset the trip counter by holding down one button on the dash. My father just got the new model of essentially the same motorcycle, with an all-digital dash. Resetting the trip counter requires digging into a menu three to four levels deep, and as you say, it took us a while to explore and find the option, with some disbelief at the apparent step backward in usability.
