Go on, keep insisting that dumbed-down consumer OSes were meant to look
“professional”. Microsoft didn’t even know what the word meant.
It was easier back in the day when the 'professional' OS was NT and the
consumers got something built on DOS or Win95. Now that everything uses
the NT kernel they have more work to do to differentiate the product and
charge accordingly.
I can relate. We had a couple of apps that were called different things
depending on who they were sold to and for how much. It even caused a lot
of internal confusion since programming called a spade a spade while
marketing came up with new names for a spade that we didn't recognize.
