NumberSyx, you are either a liar or an idiot. No Windows version has ever had an install routine as you have described.
Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, and XP all have similar installation routines. Typical clean installs include creating and formatting a partition, copying the setup files, then rebooting into GUI mode where device detection and creation of the registry takes place. Once the GUI mode portion of setup is complete, the system will reboot to the desktop.
If you dont know what you are talking about, dont post.
Windows is not hard to install, but quite the contrary. It is designed for ease of use. The average consumer would never attempt the command string for installation of the binary. You are kidding yourself.
It is obvious your a linux backer, which is fine. But don't speak for the ease of linux when you dont even understand Windows. Your comments only show your ignorance and reflect poorly on the rest of us who support linux. We don't need people like you in the community. Please stop using Linux, or at least stop embarrasing the rest of us.
