Thanks for the link. If it wasn't so indicative of consumer
stupidity,
this never-ending stream info would be REALLY funny.

(I've been meaning to thank you for these links for some time.)

YES, I use Windows. 95B and 98SE Lite. But NO other M$ software.
You could never pay me enough to install Office. And it is
simply UNBELIEVABLE how EVERYONE thinks they MUST have it.
People sure are peculiar.

 

No problem, just a public service.

In this case, everyone (or nearly everyone) has fallen under the spell of
the Microsoft marketing voodoo tactic, thus making zombies of average
consumers.

In the geek world, MS is referred to as the (Star Trek) Borg: "Resistance is
futile".

 

Been using MS Office since 1997. Mostly because my clients use it and I
have to know it to service it. All I can say is thank you Bill Gates for
making me a very wealthy IT pro in only 9 years in the business. If not
for such total shit as MS Office, W2K, XP, SBS 2000 / 2003, I would still
be crawling under desks and running ethernet drops.
