This kills me. Everything from waiting for the machine to boot (WTF ARE YOU DOING IN THERE???) to waiting for the machine to shut down.
Oberon on a twenty-year-old thinkpad is a better faster OS.
Go try it for yourself:

This is faster in your browser than your whole computer can run the current bloated crap. Click "reset" in the gear menu and watch it reboot. OOoooo so fast.
Oberon OS plus "Gadgets" has never yet been equaled or exceeded by any other UI, anywhere. If you haven't used it you can't know.
Just the separation of selection and (text, not mouse) cursor is so useful, let alone the built-in cut/copy/paste with mouse chords. Don't get me started on the Gadgets system...
But enough about the greatest OS+UI ever made...
(And my computer freezes for a full second when I scrolled down to the broken (on my machine) image. The fuck Firefox Y U so slow!? Junk. It's all junk. Made out of junk, fractal dimensions of over-wrought crap. Redundant computations that burn energy to do nothing but fail to be better than decades-old versions of itself, the fires of a digital hell.)
