Same goes for radios and all other kind of equipment: “Hey you’re a HAM, can you fix my television set?”

I sooo recognize that. Though it got a lot better since I switched to Linux 3-something years ago. The longer ago that is, the better I can escape from most of these interventions, claiming that I barely remember anything Windows-related. It works in many cases. And anyway, since Vista I’m at a loss as XP was my last MS-system in use.
XP was also the last usable MS system 🙂 (never tried W7 though)
Had to install a bunch of Win7’s since last Winter. Things went pretty well, but it’s a nightmare to configure them. Plenty of stuff is now in other places, using other terminology. As a SysAdmin, it comes down to needing plenty more time to just get the same stuff done as before (things I do blindfold on XP and even on Linux).
What’s more, I notice some Win7’s behave strangely in daily use. For the time being, I’m happy not to have one.
This is not funny. This is not funny. This is not fun… err. Argh.
