<disclaimer> However, one of the products to which Gates attributes the initial success of Windows is Visual Basic (VB). With VB, the user interface is created/designed first then the underlying code is fit to the user interface. This is not to say that there have not been some diasterous designs using VB. The point is that the software developer must think in terms of the end user. Not what she/he likes.

IMO, a greater product (or rather idea) is registry. Not the implementation (which is quite bad), but the idea itself. We in the Unix world are not even at the .ini level, unfortunately...
