    When I were a lad working for a large military electronics concern, I realised that the way most design is done in big companies is - write
    some rough kind of spec.
    - bugger around until you meet it somehow.
    - if it doesn't meet the spec, change the spec.
    - run it through test and if it doesn't pass go back to buggering around

    I am not surprised M$ is a bloated mess of staked puncture repairs ..

    My experience with a military project was different.

    Spend over a year writing a very detained spec.
    Implement the system following the spec religiously
    Realize the completed system doesn't work very well
    Tough shit, it was built to spec
    Make very expensive cost plus mods to get it working. Sort of.
    Abandon project when Congress gets sick of pouring money down a rat hole.

    Well we took three hits to get to the last stage

    It was important to keep the budget going so it could be bled for other projects

    Microsoft wants your feedback on Windows 11, especially if you
    notice "slow or sluggish" performance.

    Why are you posting this in a linux group?

    a) It's another good reason to dump M$ for Linux

    b) A lot of people here also own, or administer,
    Winders boxes.

    Don't be so uptight dude !

    My last job was in an office of 35 ... only ONE
    other person knew/liked Linux - so that was 33
    full time desktop Winders boxes + some laps to deal
    with. The servers and routers and backup units -
    I made those Linux long back, but the rank and file
    never SAW that stuff. Indeed had to make sure they
    always got the 'Winders experience' or they'd
    get all upset.

    That's reality.

    People here have alrady done that.

    People who do that also read Windows grops.

    We have topic-based groups for a reason.
