Let's Get Ready to Nitpick

Technology is complicated -- sometimes a bit too complicated. Every year there are more features, new interfaces and new platforms upon which software must run.

I'm collecting things that really drive you mad. Little things like important items buried deep inside the menu structure, and bigger things like new operating systems that don't work with your old gear.

What bugs you? Let me know at [email protected]. At the same time let me know how I can quote you. Look forward to hearing from you.
