Smart People Smart Software
Smart People need smart software. The ones that understand the requirements of the user and then customize themselves on their own. They should be smart and self-customizable and work independently to take care of the needs of their consumers.
I usually do not use all the space in my house and that does not imply that junks should occupy all the space I keep out of my use. I usually use my notebook for writing purposes, since I am an author and always occupy one idea or the other and always want to record as soon as these occur to me. I cannot afford any one slip out of mind. Therefore, paper and pen mode is out of question. I always desire to prepared editable text so that I edit it as and when I find it convenient. Hence is the NoteBook which I always love to carry.
The one that I use comes with a pre-loaded operating system which makes it latest and keep me abreast. The files of the operating system I use, I find, are so heavy that sometimes it used to take a couple of minutes to load. Often the process would become so cumbersome that it used to take toll on my time and I find it time consuming. Can't we make it simple?
I want to ask the software architect. He is the one should be held responsible for ill-conceived operating system which is not smart enough. I tend to suggest him that the operating system should be designed as a smart one and it should take care of my needs, my requirements and provide me everything that I need. It is like removing all that is useless and sending it behind, placing them in some archives making way for the customized operating system.
Don't we need smart operating systems and other software which are intelligent enough to customize themselves.

Complete Software
Gurdip Singh Bhamra
Give Me a Complete Software.
The other day I bought a software loaded machine, my HP powered
Notebook and I found that the hardware sold to me by the Company was not
compatible with the Software. It was slow in working, opening and closing the files
saving in the folders of my choice after some changes that I make. I could not
open a good number of webpages just to examine the facts for crosschecking,
which is mandatory for the work I do and when this happens with the Notebook,
it crumbles under the workload and I had to spend good number of hours sitting
as a duck in front of the notebook waiting to happen what I had intended it to
do.
All of a sudden, a screen flashes a message across my monitor, ‘your
windows require an update’ and things come to a stalk halt. All it wants me to
send a few clicks to allow it to happen to my software. The company must have
thought that I should be thankful to it as it was working day and night to
solve the issues which I have not faced so far and here it was ready with a
solution. Do I really need it? Did I ask for it? Why my operating system is not
so smart as to know my needs and work on only those aspects of features I have
been using frequently? If it is not, then I must say that my software is really
outdated and needs to be sent back to the company for the repair.
I want a complete software which is smart enough to my requirements
and work as quickly as I have been. It must come to my age to understand my
needs and of course choices. I am of strong opinion that all features that I do
not use should be put in an archive and the computer should install only on demand
and it should not use my data, my time, my hardware unnecessarily and leave the
space which I buy for every penny.
Please, give a complete software and make it smart enough to understand
my requirements and then work accordingly. Otherwise, be prepared to refund the
price you charge for the incomplete software.

Excuse Me, Please
Gurdip Singh Bhamra
Last year, in the month of March, I got a
new laptop for my usage from a reputed Hardware Company which has its chain of
showrooms across the world. It came with a preinstalled operating system from
Microsoft along with some third-party software. On using I found that the
device is slow in performing the routine tasks and I was at a loss sitting
ducked in front of the laptop waiting for a program to finish and go over to
the next task, notwithstanding the facts that the tasks were as simple opening
a document and after a little change saving on the hard drive.
A careful scrutiny brought the following to
the surface and I was surprised that the companies selling us the software are
passing their ill-conceived software that require a lot of extra bits and they
are consistently and continuously added to your hardware in the name of
updating the software. For this you need to keep your machine connected and the
machine is busing using your data to download the files as big as few gigabytes
and you keep your fingers close as your machine has to attend some other tasks
which are otherwise useless for you.
My question is that why software companies
are selling software like operating system which are ill- conceived and designed incompletely and furthermore and the ones that do get along with the hardware present in the machine. Should it force the
consumers to buy incomplete software which is not steady and consistent with
the hardware? If I pay around 10000 bucks for the genuine software, I mean to
buy a wholly complete software to take care of my needs, easily customizable
that fits my work space. It should not require a new update at least in the
first two years.
We stand duped; and fooled by the big
companies like Microsoft which wants us to spend our resources like money and
power besides Time to complete their research and development projects, if any.
If such is the conditions the customer
should think twice before paying for an incomplete software.
The expensive business machines like laptops
and notebooks are of no good use if we are unable to use it for our personal as
well as professional use.
