Today I came across an article on PC World that lists the worst 25 tech products of all time. http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,125772,pg,8,00.asp . After I read this list I have some quick notes
1. I totally agree on listing real player I remember that I stopped listening to RM media because of this player.
2. I really believe that this list misses Netscape 6.0 which I believe that it was the start of the end of Netscape.
3. Regarding IE 6.0 I believe that its main problem was that its development stopped for 5 years which made it look obsolete and old with respect to other new comers such as Fire Fox. I am strong believer that if other products had the same stress as Microsoft’s products we will see more security holes in them. At least Microsoft confessed that there is a problem and worked on it mean while I see many 3rd party developers asks on forums about how to disable the new Security Warnings in Visual C++ 2005 and many more do not like the new security options. May be I need to post about security in the future.
4. I do not remember that I suffered at all with Windows ME although I did not use it too much because I switched to Windows 2000.
