Yup the badge explains it all. I find the "easy to use" Mac OS frustrating. What do you think? :guitar:

It's just like:
just works != KISS
People confuse the two all the time.
EDIT: I just realized that what I had written might come across as a flame bait, so it's better that I clarify what I mean... I don't mean to say that one is better than the other, it's just that they are different, and that some users will feel more comfortable with one approach rather than the other. For some people the ease of use of Mac OS is the biggest selling point, for others it is the source of frustrations - since it gets in the way of how they like to use their computers.

For *whom* is it "easy"? That is the question. The newb? The Admin? The Intermediate? The tinkerer? The music composer? The video editor? The developer?
It all depends on the context. I'd say that for me, personally, arch linux (!) is "easy" to manage, since it does not add complexity to the system. But that requires some knowledge from my part.
So again, it's all in the context.
