Try to import or open models in Blender! The file open dialog will make you mad. It always suggests the blender directory and you have to click through the directory structure again and again.
You cannot paste the path from your windows explorer to the file picker dialog.

And if you managed to import the file after minutes then it loads without textures or just crashes with comment that info about crash can be found in a hidden console window.

After a few crashes I just gave it up. I could not get a file properly into Blender, no matter if I used obj, 3ds, lwo or whatever.

The feature-set reads good and I like the Blender book. But the im- and export and the GUI needs indeed heavy improvements.
