        You know, I still can't believe how lame 95/98/NT is when it
comes to software installs. It's unreal how many times the only way
to fully remove errors caused by an errant piece of software is to go
into the registry directly because the program in question didn't put
itself into the 'install/uninstall' area. Yahoo Messenger is a good
one for this. NT may look more polished than OS/2 but after the two
split off from the same root, somewhere along the way NT got screwed
up pretty good. OS/2 still beats it in the stability dept.
