It could mean that it's not available when you need it.
It could mean that it's too little an environment for some, and vice-versa.
It could mean that it's a pain to use.
It could mean that it has a tough but flexible exterior.
It could mean that it's unable to detect the outside world.
It could mean that it's protected from most virus attacks.
It could mean that it's access to foreign function interfaces is limited.
It could mean that it's unable to achieve optimal results.
It could mean that it intereferes with half of it's users desires.
It could mean that it attempts to prevent the inevitable.
It could mean that it experiences random, but otherwise safe crashes.
It could mean that it fully catches at least one common mistake.
It could mean that it's bound for the trash after just one use.

etc.  ;-)
