To be fair to Windows, it has come a long way since version 1.0! XP is a
vast improvement on 2000, which in turn is a vast improvement on NT, which
in turn was a vas... and so on, right back to Palo Alto.
What's more, Win32 API programming is much more fun than, say, GTK.
Obviously I can only speak for myself but I find it much easier to write a
robust Windows program than a robust GTK program.
I still find Windows to be a bit of a pain, which is why I mostly use
Linux
nowadays, but I think we should give credit where credit's due.
As for Windows on a mobile phone, though, that might be a step too far.
When I want to make a phone call, I want to make it *now*, not when the
operating system deigns to take a breather from whatever it's just decided
to do all by itself. :-)
