Annoying experience (Score 0)

I didn't have this problem (I'm on XP) but I was smacked with a bunch of problems:

The Apple updater appears in Polish on my system. I have my "Language for non-Unicode programs" setting set to Polish (i.e. my system codepage is set to Polish) because I used to chat using a non-Unicode chat program that required it. Apple updater is literally the only other non-DOS program on my system that is non-Unicode.

The OK for the updater appears off the bottom of my screen on my 480p projector that I use as the display for my media center (852*480). Luckily you can pick a random control that is not off the bottom and hit Enter and it moves through the pages, but it's a bit scary to be pressing buttons you can't see. This is not the only program with this problem but it sure is annoying.

When Windows fonts are set to anything other than default size, the text fields in iTunes don't display correctly. For example my iPhone options are:
[] Automatically sync when this iPhone is conne...
[] Sync only checked song and vi...
[] Manually manage music and vi...

Luckily it's pretty obvious what they're supposed to say, but it's still a highschool programming error.

And of course you can only write to the iTunes database through iTunes - not through your favorite media manager (like MediaMonkey) since Apple changed the secret hashing system in firmware 2.0; so you're forced to use iTunes on your desktop.

The iPhone does rock - it too bad iTunes sucks so much.
