It sounds like you're just parroting popular opinion, no offense. Microsoft has made some _*very_* big mistakes with different versions of Windows over the years. The half-baked Vista which was a resource hog (fun fact: Windows 7 is actually a finished Vista, with lots of the problems addressed and an updated Aero.) And Windows 8 will go down in history as having one of the stupidest mistakes for an OS ever (dual UIs, primarily catering to tablets versus the traditional desktop.) But Windows is far from [spoiler]||"shit."[/spoiler]

You're not giving any reason why Windows is "crap." I could name a dozen things that are annoying about MacOS or Linux (and its variants.) EVERY OS has its annoyances and quirks. And lots of the problems people commonly cite for Windows "sucking" is actually a user or hardware error. If you decide deleting System32 is a good idea because you think you need every last byte of your hard drive free for your Solitaire game, or if you think buying the cheapest OEM system at Wal-Mart with 2GB of RAM and Windows 7 is a good idea, yeah, you're going to have a bad time.


 
There are millions of system configurations out there, and you're always going to find something that doesn't work exactly as it should. And since Microsoft doesn't control every single piece of software released for the system, you don't have the same standards applied to everything. A crappily-written program by a crappy dev should reflect on their abilities, not Windows.
