I’m not sure which is funner: the fact that AOL still acutally runs on Windows 3.1 or the fact that they feel the need to put instructions for an operating system that was replaced eleven years ago.

Bad design

Mar 2006
So I’m entering a contest sponsored by Northwest Airlines to win a golfing trip. (No I don’t golf but I’d be happy to take the trip to Spain anyway.) I’ve got to fill in this form and see the following: “* denotes optional field”. Come on NWA. How much are you paying these designers? Since when do you mark “optional” fields. You mark the required ones to draw attention to them. What’s the point of drawing attention to an optional field. (Never mind that there’s a total of one optional field in the whole form.)

Windows Vista: The Versions
08
Mar 2006
Microsoft has put up pages describing the different versions of Windows Vista you’ll have to choose from. This should help those who are unclear. One rumor I have heard is that when you install it, you will actually have everything but access to only the level you paid for. If you want to upgrade at a later time, you just do it online and it unlocks the additional features. That is a great feature.
