Computer Gripes.
This web site is devoted to what stinks about computer products (hardware, software, web sites); specifically to the problems I have experienced in using them. It exists because the errors, bugs, poor documentation, and occasional stupidity in the field drives me nuts.

These gripes are not product reviews, which typically describe the features of a product and what's good about it. Instead they fill in the gap, focusing exclusively on what's bad about a product. The intention here is not to rate or judge products, in fact, I continually use many griped about products.

This article will explain to you, the user, the most common ways by which you can cause your computer to cease to function.
