1. Blunt knives in the kitchen. Trying to cut up steak with a blunt knife is hopeless. I'd have been better off tearing it apart with my hands or trying to cut it using another peice of steak. I'm not sure how a curry would work with whole pieces of steak in it

2. Vista. Yet another thing that it doesn't do. Either has crap support, or is deliberately being stopped from playing divx and other encoded videos saying "unable to get codec". If Windows Server 2003 can play them, surely a desktop media center based OS can. Apparently not!
