I have dealt with Microsoft

long enough to know not to trust them to screw it up. With the install base as big as it is... it's bound to happen, the law of averages is against Microsoft on this one. And what if it does wipe a legitimate system? Will Microsoft be accountable? You better believe they will!

So go ahead send your idea in, see if it gets accepted. And if it does and the inevitable happens and a legitimate business gets it's data wiped. Watch as Microsoft gets it's @$$ finally handed to it.

EULA not withstanding, that piece if tripe will get shredded and justice would finally be served. And this is just one more reason why GPL and the BSD licenses are so much better, they don't have the paranoia syndrome Microsoft has.

You have a nice day, I am going to install my new SuSE 9.1 Pro Linux system now. No registration, no data key, just insert disk and go! Enjoy being a slave man!
