Words imposed on us which we do not need

I tend not to “infer” things when it comes to computers, because what is intuitive to me so often seems at odds with what the designers consider obvious. Just because something sounds/looks similar, is not sufficient basis for me to press buttons willy nilly. I “restart” my computer at the end of every day, and I “shut down” when traveling between my home and the office. On the much more infrequent occasions that I’m told to reboot, I want to be sure I am doing exactly what I am being instructed, rather than relying on an inference - which could easily be wrong.

Just another chapter in my ongoing rant about how computer manufacturers fail to design their products for the least sophisticated users.
