No it's not, actually. The whole Windows issue revolves around the fact that the OS may or may not give an audible connection signal, the device may or may not show up in File Manager, but invariably does not appear in Caliber, or, when it does, the contents of the Kobo do not display in the program, and books cannot be copied to the Kobo. So this causes users to not be clear on whether or not it is actually connected, whether the USB connection is recognized but not completed, whether the cable itself is bad (rarely, but that's where a lot of users are looking), whether the OS is out of date on the Kobo, whether a newer or older version of Calibre is the problem... you get the gist.
