Running Windows is like having a closet full of shoes with laces you cannot tie. You know you can’t run around barefoot so you have to wear them. You look down at your feet and think, “I’m eventually going to trip and fall, but there’s nothing I can do about it. If only they used [...]

Gas stations are busy paying to fix these things.

Seriously, Microsoft? You can’t even get the displays on the gas stations to work properly. What kind of curve balls are thrown your way on this device? There isn’t even any user input on these things.
