"The best new feature of Vista, and it really, really is a nice one, is the instant Start Menu search. You can be SO fast at starting programs or finding files by just hitting the Windows key and typing the first few letters... However, these are things that can be added to XP

For years I'd loved adding an address bar to my XP Taskbar. You'd just unlock the Taskbar, double its width, and enable the Address toolbar. You had instant program and URL launch available, and an added bonus was your clock now also displayed day and date since you fattened the Taskbar. Then I installed XP SP3 and damned if the bastards didn't totally disable this option. I'm so pissed.

It wasn't a decision based on any moral judgments. It's just that they're still trying to pay off Clinton's www.IluvBBWs.com bill.

Just do all your bad stuff on a virtual machine stored on a USB key.

How am I supposed to put food on my table if people don't have the opportunity to destroy their systems with a single click anymore? My computer repair business is doomed. Doomed, I say!

And no doubt the UN will soon impanel a subcommittee which will spend millions of US dollars to generate a report condemning the US for causing this Asteroid crisis...

That Microsoft Office only beats OOo by a factor of 10. I'm not being facetious -- That is a really good chunk for OOo! For the record, I removed MS Office from over 100 lab computers in my organization last year in favor of OOo. I'm also strongly urging staff to use OOo for at least a month. If, after that, they still insist on MS Office, I get it for them. Sadly, most opt for MS. Blows my mind, especially given the fact that the differences between Office 97/2000/xp/2003 and OOo are small compared to the differences between Office 97/2000/xp/2003 and Office 2007.
