I've been using PCs for a long time (I started using IBM compatibles around the 
late 90s, when DOS was big and Wnidows 3 was coming around).  I like having cont
rol of my PC.  It seems most people these days though don't care so much about h
aving total control; they just want to do stuff with it.  Modern operating syste
ms are made in a way to prevent people from doing stupid stuff.

I does bother me, though, when the OS tries to prevent me from running a program
 because it's not "authorized" by the OS or other restrictions.
