Interface is a huge issue with humans. Try driving a car with the 
gear-shift near the steering wheel as some French cars were made. BTW, 
this the first time i've ever seen a BSOD, and she was quite freaked, 
thought the XP died because of the Ubuntu and in a sense, the crisis is 
a bit like experiencing infant seperation anxiety. What, you mean a 
world without XP? Just a weird coincidence I guess.
