MySQL ODBC drivers can bite my butt!

If you can't rant about stupid stuff on your blog that no one cares about, where can you rant?

Today's adventure. I just want to create an ODBC connection to a MySQL database. It's very simple stuff! I install the driver as administrator, and everything goes great. Now, I just need to find the driver to create the source. This is what I want to see (see that cute little MySQL ODBC 3.51 driver looking all..you know...present?).


And this is what I get. Notice the lack of a MySQL driver?


Maybe I should just stick to things like snapping pictures with my phone and adding meaningless text. It's certainly less frustrating.
