I wonder if the Universal Pictures / Lovefilm dispute has had an impact. Since November 2009 Universal Pictures have refused to make their movies available to most online DVD-rental services. So you want to see one of their movies you have to pirate it, buy it, or switch to Blockbuster.

The whole user interface is based around a touchscreen where you drag elements around. It would be pointless on a device with just a keypad.

It's a question of how much damage he does.

From those complaints, it sounds like he's not doing too much harm: you don't mention him forcing you to adopt unsuitable technologies, or embedding you in a quagmire of bureaucracy.

Also it sounds like at least he's willing to listen to you when he doesn't know how to do things. A typical bad IT boss won't admit his ignorance, and forces everyone to use the obsolete technology that he still understands.

Sounds to me like you're relatively well off with him.
