Worst. Product. Ever.

That's right haters, the PCWorld list of 25 worst tech products ever is out. Guess who won??? My long standing love affair with AOL aside, I'm really glad they took highest honors here. They've earned it. "It has never overcome the stigma of being the online service for people who don't know any better." Yep that about sums it up. You know that commercial with the guy on the girl's bike and helmet in the middle of a real road race? I can infer that they mean to imply that everyone can be really fast if they get AOL. What really comes across is that AOL users are a huge detriment to the Internet and really don't belong there.

Hang on though, there's some other good ones on the list. RealPlayer (oh god I hate RealPlayer) is second. Windows ME is fourth and Internet Explorer 6 eighth. I can't pass up this quote: "In June 2004, the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT) took the unusual step of urging PC users to use a browser--any browser--other than IE." Ph that's just precious. -any browser- haha. And close but no cigar (you can't even win at losing) was the ROKR E1 who showed up on the honorable mention list.
