I agree. Oddly, this author does not appear to be very familiar with windows computers. I dont see why:

-not reading the installation requirements and then complaining about installation requirements
-complaining about UI issues that dont exist ([SHIFT] key!)
-complaining that that the OS doesnt include your favorite text editor
-not knowing about the existence of EFS
-complaining that device drivers are somehow part of the OS?

...counts as a informative OS review for a security forum.

My mother switching from a Mac could have written this same "review" -- if she also had a bad attitude. What gives? Why is this even worth publishing?
