I hardly started late in the game. Had Atari 520ST computer in 1989
(8MHz!, 500Kb! ram), moved on to DOS and DRDOS, was one of the first
in the world with XP (presumably beta version) on October 14 2001
(official XP release date was Oct 25 2001).
Am still using DOS to this day on an old Compaq Presario and writing
software in Assembler on it. This message typed and sent from it
(check out the tagline T4 below...it's a 1990's DOS program!).
Back to the present. If I download Windows Live Mail, I expect it to
put an icon on the desktop for me like most other applications do.
I shouldn't need to go hunting for the .exe file.
There are numerous things that are not quite right about Win7 and
Windows Live Mail. These give the impression that Win7 was rushed to
the market to meet some marketing deadline before it was ready.
