>From /.: "My three pet gripes about GUI software are 1) focus stealers -- you are typing away in one app and some other app pops up and then you are typing into some other window that has grabbed focus, 2) Files Save that makes you start over from the beginning with each program launch or even each Files Save instead of remembering where you last saved a file, and 3) programs that lock up the GUI at the least provocation (yeah you, Adobe -- I dread Web surfing into PDF files, even from a broadband connection)."

What are your worst peeves, and what's a better way these operating systems could work? http://technical-writing.dionysius.com/ technical writing | consulting | development ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better sports nut!
