Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
NOTICE: In-Newsgroup (and therefore off-topic) comments on my sig will
be cheerfully ignored, so don't waste our time.

And people didn't sue because they did something stupid and think someone
should pay them for it, and people didn't lock their 3 year olds in a closet
for 3 days while they went on vacation. Yup, those were good times.

And we didn't have to lock our doors and people didn't steal ... then MS
won't have to implement the processes they have to protect their valuables

Want a challenge?
Go through that article and all it's associated articles and count the
number of times the word "experience" appears.
I'm farily certain that I am not the only one who thinks that Microsoft has
overused this word when talking about Vista.

heh, sort of like when you search for the word "Microsoft" on your C: drive
after a Vista install.
I turned up over 11,750 instances, and that was only counting file and
folder names, no file contents
narcisstic *******s

I remember when NT came out there was a joke going around

"If you play the NT disc backwards
it says that <put your variation here>
is the devil.
And if you think that's bad,
play it forwards -
It installs NT."

Well, it was funny at the time ; )
