    A suitable metaphor for this would be saying that you didn’t enjoy having to start a Model T Ford with a hand crank so you’ve refused to drive a car ever since. Reminds my of my Grandfather.

    • Nah, I should probably try it again for real. I’m sure it has come a long way in almost 25 years. I just haven’t had the time of im being serious.

        Well, last time I installed it it was easier than Windows. I put it on my Dad’s computer and it just works with his printer etc.

      More like they bought a Model T Ford, and didn’t like the build quality.

      So they reckon that isn’t improved in the new models compared to other manufacturers. Especially if they didn’t trust the management behind the company.

      Which is a fair opinion to have.

      Just because it improved doesn’t mean it improved in the areas you had problems with.
