Personally I think this is one more "why lose a chance to bad mouth MS" kind of post.
Like pedalpete points, its a design choice: Windows seems to dump more decisions to the user whereas Mac is on the other extreme.
Of course the dialogs like that are silly but why judge Win7 based on that. I am using Win7 since beta and my Toshiba tecra has never been faster. The setup took less than 20 mins and no crash since I installed in Jan. No driver availability issues like with Vista.
If you are a Windows guy, I do think Win7 is the answer.
- GHFigs 17y agoOf course the dialogs like that are silly but why judge Win7 based on that. Because the dialogs are part of Windows 7, and they represent a distinct user interaction paradigm that exists throughout the operating system. Why shouldn't you judge an OS that you will be using regularly based on how it is designed to interact with you?
- seshagiric 17y agoIts not like each and every dialog you get in Win7 is meaningless.
- GHFigs 17y agoThe point is that this isn't a bug or fluke or outlier, it's just an extreme example of the usual Windows model of interaction.
