No hardware problems in the version I run, not sure what version you use. It's also not frustrating for me but what I do get frustrated with is trying to get software to run and Linux but just won't work. Most people are smart enough to be able to use windows without getting frustrated.

As a Windows user since 3.x days, I complain mostly about UX issues these days. It's also clear leadership is not aligned with what I want with my desktop.

I've hardly had hardware issues since I moved to Windows 2000. Sure some, but few enough I can't recall any in particular.

People have complained about every version of Windows, including the ones that were considered to be good milestones (like 2k and 7).
