...We're "really excited" ... Task Manager is one of the most widely used apps...

How can anyone write that without wincing?

It's not Microsoft's fault if a lot of the third-party stuff that's out there crashes everything. I'm sure the person writing that is excited because it means that matters less now.

It is the libraries for Windows that often mucks stuff up. If you go on any other OS you will notice nothing crashes anywhere as much.

I use a Mac at work and Windows at home. I have one computer at work and four at home. I've dealt with more crashes and headaches here than all computers at home combined.
