Windoze _annoys_ me constantly (that is when I'm foolish
or masochistic enough to bother using it).

Like when I go to edit a mistyped word in a web page edit box,
and as soon as I've moused over the first character, the selection
expands to the entire word.  The neighbours must wonder why
I'm swearing so much.

Windows: Throw it in the trash, it's worthless.

XP: (Chi-Rho): Heaven help us!
