Your Top 10 Most Annoying Tech Products

Shortly after its release a tidal wave of bug reports smashed into Redmond. Installation was difficult, hardware driver support was sketchy, and system crashes were routine. As one PC World columnist said: "If you upgraded to Me from an older version of Windows, you might feel that the term 'Millennium' refers to the length of time it will take to fix the glitches."
