We all use rose colored glasses
A reader of my articles has posted some very insightful comments in regards to operating system aficionados developing tunnel vision. I would like to expand on that. Not only do we develop tunnel vision we further compromise our vision by wearing rose colored glasses.
Tunnel vision is an interesting phenomenon where going at speed reduces our field of vision. The faster you go the narrower the field of vision until only what is directly in front is seen. If at some stage something intrudes from the sidelines it is not seen and BAM!
The more familiar we become with our chosen operating system the easier we find it to use. The faster and more efficiently we can use it and completing tasks with that operating system become automatic. As we are creatures of habit we tend to become stuck in the rut of our complacency and develop the computing equivalent of tunnel vision for the used operating system.
