I can’t be to only one.

It seems that virtually everything about, not only Microsoft, all new software programs require you to be connected to use those programs.

The full integration of your desktop to the cloud?.

As if that is what I want?

It’s not.

The new MS OS’s expect that you actually WANT to conduct all your activity while “connected”, as if that is a good thing.

It’s nuts.

Back in 1999, I had this crazy thought that “The/your desktop” would become the new “Browser”.

I hate it.

I hate the OS that “tries” to help me. The OS that thinks it knows what I want to do.

"The OS that thinks it knows what I want to do."

That is precisely what I despised about my one time use of an Apple computer.

The thing locked you out of most anything it thought you should not have access to. Was used to controlling my PC and then wham, you cannot do that. I could not tolerate an OS that knew better than you. Too much like democrats.

IMHO, anyone who connects their computer to the “cloud” is begging for trouble. In other words, BUMP! :)
