Here is another perfect example of the momos at Microsoft messing up a good thing. In my line of work I've used IIS 6 for years without much trouble. Sure there were a few bumps and bruises along the way but nothing to call for a complete retooling of the interface. The configuration of 6.0 was intuitive, easy to configure, and it just worked. If you needed to find something within the interface, bam! it was right there waiting for you. It was almost too easy to go in and change things and a curious newcomer could do some serious damage. Well here is a shocker for you, instead of just tightening up the ship a little bit to save us from our own mistakes, they decide to go and completely revamp IIS 7.0. Oh and what a wonderful job they did. The interface is something like a baby throwing shit at a wall. Icons thrown all over the place so you can't find anything, having to dig 3 and 4 levels deep to find a feature that used to be one click away. It just stinks on ice. So golf clap for Microsoft, they went from having a good solid interface you didn't cringe at when you had to use, to paint balling icons all over the fucking place so you don't know what the fuck is up and down. What techie over 12 wants a million icons on a page? We just want everything to be laid out neat and clear. How hard is that? Just change the view you say? Sure I can do that but the layout is still impossibly different than 6.0 and still makes me want to put my head through a wall every time I need to make a change. Fuck You Microsoft, I will use IIS 6 for as long as possible.
