> 2) the totally broken clipboard in Linux causes constant annoyance: I want reliable, predictable copy/paste for text that works the same in every application This is probably my number 1 rage point with Microsoft Office products. No matter what I do, it persists in trying to do some kind of fucked rich-text copy/paste that mangles whatever I paste into. It's so bad that I've taken to pasting into Notepad first and copying from there to try to ensure that I only get text.
