Comment Sooner or Later ... (Score 1) 182

Someone is going to have to dismantle the Pandora's box that is the DPRK.

S. Korea and the US have been putting it off for decades and China is finally getting PO'd and worried a N. Korea fall will result in millions crossing their border instantly looking for food.

It couldn't cost as much as Afganistan.

Comment Terminal Windows Complexity? (Score 1) 230

I'm just wondering if Windows has become so complex that even MS's programmers can't keep all the gears and chains and indexers humming along w/99.9% uptime.

When are we as users going to insist on bullet proof OS's? It goes for all mainstream systems.

Seems like it time for a ground up rebuild of the OS. If not, why continue using a system with so many problems. Patch after patch after malware patch and it doesn't change.

Comment Re:trust lost is difficult to regain - Amen !!! (Score 1) 415

I have a high end application that is simply mandatory for work in my field and it only runs on Windows. It is bad enough if the application goes to a new version I don't want or need, but the force me to pay for & do it anyway or lose contact for needed files and support, but Microsoft can now make it worse with Monitization.

If I don't pay a recurring fee for Windows, then I could be in jeopardy of being suddenly held hostage if someone hacks the MS servers and my version of Windows goes down.

Sorry, but I just don't trust Microsoft, at all.

I'm continuing to post comments & write letters pleading with the makers of the key applications I need to support Mac OS X.
