Drivering me crazy
Drivers are the bane of existence for computers - and that extends to all platforms. M$ has changed their driver structure a few times now (recently for Riska). Linux has also had a few iterations with driver changes. The biggest weakness for Solaris x86 today is lack of drivers. Sun even tried to re-define drivers (was that JINI?) to try to create a universal standard.

Drivers are the front line for the barrier to entry. Although Windoze is supposedly backward compatible with most software, it is not when it comes to drivers. Drivers, drivers everywhere but not a spec to sync . . .
