Windows for dummies
While many people love higher tech, forever upgrading and updating their computer programs, (and mobile phones), did it ever occur to Bill Gates and Microsoft that there are those of us who do not need all the availability of continual upgrades?
Nor do many people, including myself need it. I still run my computer on Windows XP, a few friends are still satisfied with the old Windows 98, which contrary to what Microsoft wants us to believe, still functions quite well.
It matters not that Microsoft no longer supports these programs. Who really cares?
Many people still prefer the old Outlook Express as the simplest method to send and receive email. Microsoft should market this as a separate program which is still far better than any of the newer versions that Bill Gates and his buddies have produced to-date, simple to use.
Simplicity and ease seems to have gotten lost, or now have unknown meaning.
Microsoft should continue to update and upgrade its Windows programs. This is the only way they’ll make more and more money.
But at the same time, perhaps they should consider a program for those of us who do not need 99% of what these programs offer, or need a PhD to figure out.
A windows entitled “Simple Windows for Simpletons” would be appropriate. And, I’m sure it would outsell a lot of other programs.
