    I can kind of feel the author on this. I’m in charge of a lot of “special projects” at work that basically come down to, “figure out a way to replicate this extremely expensive technology or software using low cost or free alternatives”. It ends up being an unholy mix of programs and hardware that is held together with duct tape and super glue and any minor perturbation means something breaks.

      Sounds like less of a Windows problem than an individual problem, though.

      Blaming Windows cause your Frankenstein machine breaks often is disingenuous.
