what tinkering are you talking about?


By tinkering, I mean you have to install the updates. I do it manually, otherwise I'll get stuff I don't want...like IE7 (piece of shit). Sometimes those Windows updates take like 2 or 3 reboots and that annoys the shit out of me. I still get messages telling me that my USB devices will be faster if I get a better USB expansion card. I have an old one and don't really want to get a new one. I know I can turn that shit off, but I just don't want to take the time to do it right now.

I get another stupid message about program updates or something. It pops up every now and then and I can't seem to stop it from doing so. There's a few other things that bug me, but I can't think of them right now. It just feels like I spend more time adjusting my computer than actually doing stuff on my computer. Macs don't seem to be that way, hence my interest.

Perhaps I'm just being a twit about it.....but I've come to hate dealing with the little things on a Windows machine, that's all. It's like I have to constantly keep an eye on things in order to keep MS from doing something to it from behind the scenes.....if that makes any sense.
