We came across this post and became curious as to what our Unplggd readers would have to say about this one. Working in consumer electronics design this is always one of the arguments that we use to plead our case for simplicity rather than piling on more features. So what do you say?

No. Even my 80-year-old friend figured out her new tv eventually, and so can you.
why return it when you can just learn about it and figure it out...
i hate that so many things are getting dumbed down. then the people that want actual real adjustment have to hack the crap out of them to make them work like they should.
for example, i just bought a new digital camera, and yeah it's really nice but it can only leave the shutter open for a second, you can't take a proper low light or night shot in a second. why not make it an option to do longer shutter speeds, because people wouldn't know how to work it. that's why i still keep around a camera that is 5 years old, because i can do long exposures, it's just big and clunky and is only 4 mp.
why does it seem like we're not progressing but going backwards...
Perhaps I've never just bought any electronics *that* complicated. I have returned nonelectronic gadgets (like a window air conditioning unit support bracket) which were simply too complicated for their purported function.
