A computer *is* an extremely complex and powerful

But I think the major OSs and a lot of software do
express two major flaws that don't help matters: One is
that they're designed to minimize tech support calls.
The other is that they equate lack of tech aptitude
with stupidity. (An expression of geek arrogance. These
things are designed by people with little socialization,
who've spent *way* too much time playing computer
games for children, and who think lunch is a Pepsi and
a candy bar -- adult adolescents.)

I'm sorry, but I have to strongly disagree with your characterization of
lunch. You'd have been OK if you had said 'Pepsi product' because everyone
knows that lunch includes Mountain Dew. While I'm at it, a salty snack makes
a better companion than a candy bar.
