Abstract
Like death and taxes, bad usability affects us all. In a way, it is comforting to know even one of the richest people in Britain, the Duchess of Devonshire, has trouble with Television remote controls. In her book (“Counting My Chickens”, Farrar Straus & Giroux), she writes: “There are so many tiny rubbery squares ... I go to Bakewell & buy a lot of sticking plasters to cover the unwanted buttons...Oh for a telly of yesteryear”. Bad CHI must be a big problem if even the rich can't escape it.
