I work in a bagel bakery which is generaly not that bad, my customers are for the most part semi-non-morons and atleast somewhat polite, but not all. There is a menu sign on one of the walls that says roughtly "Try one of our flavors of Cream Cheese" in about 3 inch+ high letters. I occasionly get a customer try to tell me that a type of cream cheese is a type of bagel, and I have actualy had other customers correct them and try to prove to them that what they want is in fact a type of cream cheese. I am sure there is plenty of blame to spread around for the luvbug macrovirus(hey blame is easier than responsiblity), but I think that part of the responsibility does go on the users for knowing what they are using when they use a certian peice of software and being intelegent enough to see the potential problems that it could have(such as outlooks ''feature''). Not all people are that smart, some are, but there are alot that are not and the not as smart tend to make up for it by being louder. Microsoft gets some responsibilty for the problem by making a shoddy product, but the main responsiblity goes to the person/people that wrote the luvbug macro; however, they did do alot of people a service by pointing out to them some of the inherant problems in the software they use and how they pay for ''convience''. The bottom line is some people are intelegent and some people are not. I do use linux(in case anybody cares) as my desktop os, and I use pine.
