5. "Going to church is not a good use of time" --Bill Gates
as told by Garrison Keillor. Something does not fit.

6. Sure it fits, perfectly. Gates is an opportunist who will do ANYTHING to
'succeed'.

8. Even though you didn't hear much about it..
Edited on Sun Aug-21-05 09:36 PM by sendero
.... the recent Zotob virus caused a lot of downtime and was harder to clean up than many past viruses.

It is only a matter of time before some real enemies of the United States bring our country to a standstill using a malicious virus, thanks to the utter piece of amateurish dreck that is Microsoft Windows.

One of these days, an enemy of ours or even a disaffected hacker will author a virus that does more than just replicate and reboot, it will erase the entire hard drive or maybe just the system registry and there will be no "bring it back up", rebuilding the system will take days and data will be lost forever.

Businesses use Windows for all kinds of mission-critical applications is was never designed for. It was barely designed well enough to be a good "personal computer". If Gates is really interested in ID, he should have become so back in 1984. :)
