System Information has been in ALL WINDOWS VERSONS since day one.

Since it's seldom consulted, people do forget how to find it.

Later versions have added a step (System Tools) in the sequence of buttons you click to get to it. The steps shown in upper case (all caps) separated by "bars" are "like buttons to click" even if they are named and you click on the names.

System Information has the appearance of a "folder," hence the change in notation to the \...\...\ form. From SysInfo on down, you're drilling down in folders and subfolders to get to the specific info you want to look at.

(Ten steps to get to exactly the info you wanted isn't bad. In new Word you've got 750 unintelligibble "icons" on ten "tabs" to sort out, to get to half the tools the old versions gave you in three clicks.)

Nothing there more difficult than finding where you put granny's recipe for that green stuff that shows up at every meeting of the clan, except that I can't tell you where you might have put that.

A "feature" that I find mildly annoying in later Win versions is that "All Programs" moves some (but not all) "most recently used" things to the top of the list, so that the stuff in that list is never in the same place where you left it last time; but that's manageable. Just mumble "WTF" and scan down the list.
