No one gives a **** what some **** who uses Microsoft Live Mail as a news
reader thinks. That's proof enough that you are a Microsoft weenie and is
not to be trusted.

Hey MitchAsshole,

I suggest you get one of these
http://dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=4542 and stick it on your big fat
head and help Microsoft sell the turd. They'll need all the help they can
get this time out.

Taking into account the so called "authorities" on this ******** of a
planet, an "authority complex" is simply a natural state.

Whilst on this subject, I'd appreciate it if someone could clarify the
following -

Do you need a seperate license for each and every seperate computer you
own? (ie you pay extra for each computer)
Will this be different with Vista?

If so, this is an insane policy - it's like needing to own a different
set of tools for every car you own - just nuts!

I'm thinking about getting an eye patch with matching parrot real soon -
some companies really ask for it don't they!?

Basically that is what they are saying. Every two hardware upgrades you
will need a new version of Vista. Just do as I will be doing and tell them
to STFU and activate my copy of Vista, quick like.

Yea, a litle bit of paranoia is a good thing. Mitch is so 'effed up from
late nights trouble shooting Windows he just does as the big man says.
