High School project? When was the last time you tried writing an OS? If it 
were truly that simple, you should be able to write a better one yourself, 
right?  Statements like that only show the true lack of understanding for the 
problem by the writer.

BTW: If you HAD to mess with the Windows Registry to install something, 
that is the fault of the specific manufacturer and their driver programers. 
NOT Windows or MS. There should absolutely be NO reason for you to 
mess with the registery to effect an install. 

Your complaints are like throwing the baby out with the bath water.  You 
need to put the blame for this specific instance where it belongs and it's 
certainly not with MS any more than it's the fault of Intel.

I still cast my vote for talking about photography and leaving platform 
bashing to the computer nerd groups.
