Vista - Microsoft Caves Under Heavy Pressure From One MSDN Subscriber

Today, Bill Gates himself said, "due to numerous outspoken complaints and
requests made by a specific MSDN operating systems level subscriber both to
Microsoft and to a "higher authority", we have decide that from this point
onward, all builds of Vista will be made available to certain MSDN operating
system level subscribers."

Mr. Gates went on to say that this was an example of how one man could
change the practices of a huge company and the American way working at its
best.

Mr. Gates would not comment on what was meant by "available to *certain*
MSDN operating systems level subscribers," but did say that for an
undisclosed reason, those subscribers with last names beginning witht the
letter "P" would not be included in the additional downloads.

LOL!

I think they should hack build 5365, remove the newsreader, and make it
available to only the person in question :-)
