You missed the point.
When you keep everything in one place the hacker only needs one success.

As an artist myself I'd counter that argument with this: Vincent Van

For the record, while I have sold more paintings in my lifetime

I don't understand what is stupid about it from a UI experience. The parts
of Windows I hate most are hangs and crashes, but those two things are usually

There's no 'rewrite' of Windows.
I'll agree. There is probably not a rewrite.
You have to consider that Windows is an *enormous* codebase that likely
could not be rewritten in three years, nor would I want it to be rewritten.
Right. That was the point of the article. A lot of developers

It's clunky, confusing, ugly, non-intuitive, and seems to be purposely
designed to frustrate people.
It's basically an AMC Pacer with the steering wheel in middle.
All I'm concerned about is more stability at the OS level, and less
opportunity for malware infections.
In the back of my mind, the thought came across that this might be the
reason for the rewrite (if it happens).
You are correct but a lot of developers are worried that their present

Sandboxing is not something that MS is looking to do with its technologies - in
fact, MS does exactly the opposite. Tight integration with OS-level operations
are a strong component of .NET and there is no indication that sandboxing is
wanted at the OS level.
That said, sandboxing is
