You have that right. I was a mainframe computer operator so I bought a Mac for home. If I had to reboot twice in a year something was wrong and let me tell you until about 2008 you simply knew your Mac would work.... those days are gone..... I have to boot 3 times in a year now
These things are tools I don't expect to have to build my hammer every time I want to drive a nail.
But hey I like starting my VOx up and hearing Buzz Lightyear

But then I started with Basic, a TRS-80, then Dos 3.2, so I had to do a lot of stuff for myself. People coming from the Mac culture don't expect to have to "look under the hood" and expect everything to be idiot-proof and every app to know about every other app and all of them to communicate and play nicely together. If that doesn't happen, it's disaster.
