  1. Re:, but I've learned to adapt. on ZDNet Proclaims "Windows: It's Over" · · Score: 1

    Not me. Frigging ran away from Unity as fast as I could. The difference is that I *am* more tolerant of Ubuntu because I don't have to pay for it. You get what you get. I actually shilled out for Win7 (for gaming).

    What I don't get is why people aren't all raging about how broken window focus management has been since Windows 7. It used to be you could <alt>+<tab> and cycle through windows in a predictable manner, so you weren't required to remove your hands from the freakin' keyboard when you're working at 90 miles an hour. Or is this just a dual-monitor fsckup?

    ^^^THIS. *So hard. * Easily the most frustrating part of my Windows experience. This literally sends me into apoplectic rage fits. Ok, so maybe I have a problem, but, still, I can't figure out for the life of me just *what* that befuddling behaviour is meant to accomplish. I mean, if there was a discernible point to it, I *might* be able to rationalize my frustration as a result of my own stubbornness or refusal/inability to adapt - or, better yet, learn to use it in a new way. But I can't. It doesn't seem to have any objective benefit. Just what in the actual, MS?
