I do not think that is fair. Plenty can go wrong on a box due simply to
conflicts between what different software titles write to the registry,
missing dll's that installers forgot to include, SO MANY THINGS that
are beyond the purview, control, or presumed knowledge of and end-user
and which are DEFINITELY not due to them "messing up".
The original poster on this thread is a Windows user. That's why he is
using Windows, doh. He seems to have a fear of things that might happen
TO his computer and it is just completely unrealistic to propose that
anything that might happen TO a computer (particularly one with new
virus threats every hour of every day) is the fault of the end-user!
The above shows why a newbie shouldn't be using Windows. It's too easy
to have problems and too difficult to fix 'em. I have worked with Linux
and OS/2 for many years and neither have the problems that are
commonplace in Windows. They simply work and do so reliably.
