"But it's only wafer thin, sir"


I know, I know, I'm usually the one defending Microsoft, but I will admit that The Monolithic One does seem to have a tendency to add features first, and release products later, oh and then fix problems after that. Oh, oh, and to listen to use feedback at some point. The bloat, bloat, bloat, POP! cycle reminds me of a scene from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life in which a ludicrously obese, laughably imperious man eats until he quite literally explodes, leaving gory chunks of vomit-soaked viscera all over the restaurant.
