Did you even read the article? Besides, bloatware doesn't exist for your reason anyway. Bloatware exists entirely because software developers will pay hardware

  Yes, I did. I know that's the main reason for bloatware, but the justification, the part that lets them sleep at night, is that they are adding value with their shitty software: >The preloaded apps “highlight the key features and performance” of the Vibrant, says a Samsung representative.They are there are to showcase the phone’s processor and display, a T-Mobile spokesperson told Wired.com. http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/07/bloatware-android-phones/ http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/07/bloatware-android-pho...

  Given the fact that common european microwave has two big mechanical knobs (timer and "power" typically implemented as fairly slow PWM, probably mostly mechanically) and door switch for power switch it seems to me that overly complex UI of other microwaves (as well as existence of these patents) seems to me being primarily motivated by someone trying to market microwave as high-tech gadget instead of simple kitchen appliance.

  > Did you even read the article? Yes, but the article is terrible. And the comment you replied to is probably a lot closer to the truth.
