>Can’t grandma still use the old computer while we all use our new computers with new software that’s enriching our lives? Sure! And so can Uncle Joe and Aunt Mable! But why should they have to? We used to have this thing called 'sane defaults' and configuration options, which allowed people to set things to their preferred level. Why is it now suddenly that everything is hardcoded to behave one way? Nothing is allowed to be configurable? So much of this is about configurations and not about the age of the software being used.
