This is exactly the reason why I've always said that the horseless carriage will never take off. There must be dozens of manufacturers and hundreds of models to choose from. Heck, even a single model comes with a confusing array of choices, colors, finishes, and options. Just how is the average user (aka driver) supposed to choose which horseless carriage to purchase?

The "My" prefix has always reinforced to me how Windows is a sucky server platform. A few years ago I worked on a server appliction that ran on a farm of about 20 windows servers - each one had the "My Computer" on the desktop, and none of them were 'mine'. It just seemed like the designers of the windows desktop never really thought about how their OS was going to be used. Even on a desktop machine, its very inconsistant when the user of the computer is referred to both in the first person ("My Computer") and in the second person ("Are you sure you want to delete that file?").
