Re:Cut the BS (Score 1)

I think everyone understands the business upside to crippling the installer. I think the question at issue is when will the technical downside become a business downside? That is to say, you go this far to protect your (ahem) unsophisticated user at the cost of shafting the savvy user this much. The vitriol in the thread comes from the shafted savvy users who aren't enough of a market presence to have their interests represented. We're just sick of the shaft, man, and maybe MS could throw us a bone (dialog box), here. [This comment could go into 78% of /. threads, btw.]
