It's the Little Things -- 11:28 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Now that I've been using Linux almost exclusively for some time, there are little things about Windows9x that have become REALLY annoying. One was a pet peeve of mine before I switched over. When I'm going through the Start Menu, if some other program starts running (at boot) or a message window pops up, I'm immediately dropped out of the menu. The Start Menu should never, ever lose focus. Thankfully, KDE nips this one in the bud. I also made the mistake of tweaking my Windows Explorer settings. Now all of my directories are marked "view as web page" so I have to go through and change them all by hand. Blech. Whoever at MS decided that a web page metaphor would be a good idea for a file manager should be shot without trial.
