Comment Re:So what? (Score -1) 397

If Windows 7 catches on, it won't be long before you run across software that refuses to run on XP.

It's common today to find software that won't run on anything older than Windows 2000. That's largely because Windows ME, 98 and 95 were not based on NT. To assume Microsoft would release another NT based operating system that is so radically different that it would spawn "Windows 7 only" software is not only wrong, it's downright asinine.

I call bullshit. We didn't even get to see the demonstration itself. It's entirely possible that the no OS could prevent the style of intrusion that was going to be demonstrated. But, you get get extra Microsoft bashing points just for pointing out the host OS used, whether or not it was part of the problem.

I didn't. My first computer was a 8-bit machine.

Yeah, no shit? Gee, so was mine. But the parent was suggesting that a majority of people, which excludes the likes of you and me, had their first computer experience using a PC. Just another self-centered prick, always wanting to stick his dick in the equation.
