Everyone remembers fondly the time they were young, I believe it is more about that then everything else.
replyI understand your feelings but it is extremely tipical in human history to keep remembering "the good old times"
That may be true, and had you asked me half a lifetime ago, I would have likely said "The old days were better".

I would have still said I enjoyed using computers. And I wouldn't have said "Today's interface sucks" (well, other than my HW not being able to keep up with eye candy...)
I simply don't enjoy using the computer these days. And I do think the interface sucks. Pretty much anything that involves using the web browser sucks - be it a local app or a web app.
