To tell you the truth, I am sick of MS software or human engineering gurus producing products that prohibit the user from fast, efficient use of the product when they know what a particular click or action will do.

Specifically, when I want to delete something, I don’t need to answer twenty effing questions about whether I am sure. Nor, do I want to see all the caution crap....if I had the time to negotiate all the screwed up human-response engineered help menus, I’d find out how to turn off all that crap if it is there. But, there’s the rub...these ‘facilitators’ make it next to humanly impossible to do that because people (other than some grandma who has just started using a computer) would like what they’ve done - thus, no need for these twits.

Call me old-fashioned, but I don’t think a week goes by that I don’t curse Bill Gates.
