Re: Ouch, what if Microsoft designed the iPod box

The downside of Apple (my primary systems are MAC) is that they assume the users are incapable of doing anything complicated. DON'T ALLOW users to become high performance knowledge workers. If the world were designed by Apple...non-of us would drive a car...the car would drive itself. Your tooth brush and comb would have one bristle and tooth. If you can't make it simple, don't offer it. At least Microsoft FORCES you to do more to get your work done :-).

Doug Engelbart's co-evolution of tools and human systems is the way we should go!
