yeah it was a bit harsh but im a programmer and something as simple as a ui design should not stop trees being displayed or you need to look at your basic designs. i believe in making software flexable with room for upgrades later on, if someone like microsoft hasnt looked at something as simple as these two concepts then its a sad sad day :D
Now I understand your reaction better.
