RE: "Vista/Longhorn = ripoff"
Billy-gates is getting his software up there withthe cost of houses. So when the house market flops (and it will) so will Mr. billy-gates expensive and bad software.

You have to have the higher then average common-sense to use windows without running into all these problems. So i say, BOO microsoft.

What people really need from Microsoft is better working software, not just security but performance too, every new version requires double the memory and double the amount of hard drive space, only to find out it's half the speed of the previous version.



""Do you want functionality or do-dads? Is the computer a tool to do things, or your alter ego? Your course of action depends on how you answer. If the computer is doing what's needed, why change? Virus/Trojan/Spyware? Wanna bet the majority of outbreaks are intentional, by pissed off employees? Or Lazy incompetent IT's? Better management is the answer, not better security. Any lock can be picked, with enough time and determination. So why change? Maybe you feel sorry for Billie-boy Gates, and feel he needs your ducats. Put your $ where it'll do the most good, people.""
