this is ridiculus...seriously. Come the F on!
You people need to stop sticking up for them. They are the biggest company
in the world and your telling me they can supply what they offer and make a
website work?? Let face it any company would test and make sure it works
before "going live". They have no problem "authorizing" xp or processing our
payments etc etc.
With unlimited resources this company should be able to handle this. These
are the people that made the internet what it is today!!
