This is a prize example of capitalism being a conspiracy against the interests of the consumer.

Does anyone really want all this shit? We just want a Morris Minor that will reliably get us to our destination without error or interference.

That is why the Amstrad Word processor continued to sell and sell and sell until it was just TOOOOO old fashioned.

W95 provided plenty of functionality. All it needed was to be reliable. What did Gates do? Tart it up and make it worse.
