Executive upheaval this morning...
It appears some of our workstations in Europe were hit with this flaw this morning. Our board of directors summoned a meeting and I have heard rumors that I may be getting fired for creating a total dependence on one vendor for all of our software needs. I called my rep and he came over immediately. However, he was not allowed in the building. He did email me a PowerPoint entitled "Why The Microsoft Monoculture is Good". I will present it this morning if I need to. My MCSEs and MCSDs are confident that I will remain onboard though. They are right now celebrating and dancing away, obviously expecting me to be exonerated and to continue to deploy Longhorn Server.
