Bad architecture ? Compared to Linux ? I refute that on the strongest.

F.ex: Linux lacks, even to this day, a unified graphics API like GDI 
(X-Windows notwithstanding), and window manager.
Instead they have a plethora of disparate kludges and hacks on top of 
X-Windows, all more or less cumbersome to use.
The API flora of the Windows architecture should, by rights, make Linux 
programmers green with envy ;-)
(Why do you think the WinE project was born in the first place?)
