Hoho! Great! The best was if every window in every OS was so obvious that
could cause immediate familiarity. The more different a kitchen can be you
don't need any special brain effort to know where you can find water, for
example.
But when I tryed to install other OSs in my computer I found myself completely
lost without knowing even the basic 'how to start' something. After these
experiences, restarting Windows is just like coming back home...

Yes, it looks simple but hey, I still fight with those four mouse pointers for
the popping scrollbars...
