Looks like Bill Gates is still treating the rest of the world like idiots. Unfortunately, there are too many people willing to let him, like anonymous and others above. Talk about anticompetitive behaviour! You know, there is a better way (just look at the glorious new MacOS or even BeOS) , you just have been sucked into the MS vortex and can't operate without them now. And don't talk about the cost of changing...the cost of continuing with the MS ethos is already too high, what with Windows' continued upgrades, security flaws, patching, viruses, and built in obsolesence, it's just that people are always being told how much they need Windows, and how good it is. Good, my arse. What a pile of crap. And to think they are now finding ways to force us to pay for it? Bill Gates said a long long time ago that this was his plan: get people hooked and then figure out how to charge them for it...seems like he is only being true to his word, the devious little hitler.

hey, blue screen, my old friend... how come we keep meeting like this?
