This is hilarious
Good move MS: it is the `right' time to promote xp as a cash-register platform in the midst of the endless stream of viruses and worms incidences na an endless patch-re-patch-re-re...-patch cycles. The solid security `features' of xp guarantee an instant success in this idea.

As long as the cash register gets connected to something (store lan) some viruses will quicly find their way to the CR.

MS: ``We believe that your memory lasts for a couple of hours only and your IQ < 50''(TM)
