Many people complain about the Windows operating system, but still it is one of the most used operating systems for personal computers. This is in part because Bill Gates achieved the genius feat of getting the PC manufacturers to install DOS (and later Windows) on their hardware. Of course there are other alternatives like MacOS and various Linux distributions, and some more exotic ones like BeOS, and many programs today are available on multiple operating systems, but still switching form one to the other means you need to find all programs you want to use for the particular OS. So could we make Windows more pallatable?
