In most cases, if you wanted to build an operating system that worked well for a desktop computer, videogame console and mobile device you would develop a very strong kernel and then develop a GUI for each of the devices to ensure the best user experience possible with each device. Unfortunately, Microsoft sees the UI and many programs as being part of the operating system core and when they developed a cross-platform OS you end up with a user experience that is bad across all devices. |

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
