I don't know as much about coding as I am sure many of you do, and I don't know if this site is reliable at all, but it is interesting none the less.

ROTFLMAO!!!
My current reason for hating microsoft is that my version of IE5 hangs up three or four times a session (or what would be a session if I didn't have to reboot because of it). This usually coincides with me touching the keyboard or moving the mouse, so it's real useful. ------------------ Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so. Epona of The Laughing Hyenas |

I never buy a new version of Microsoft ANYTHING until it's out of date ... that way I figure THEY will have ironed out the problems. e.g:I'm still using Win98, which I only got last year...!

My graphicscard runs in circles arounf itself on any of the new OS´s out there, this due to Drivers that really really s**ks.. (sorry) Well, otherwise Microsoft have made some really good things, except the newest stuff. It is not for powerusers and gamers but more for an office environment. Too many small animated thingies going off all the time.. *bla* And all the problems with fonts and people trying to make things in office that you have to remake and work your butt off to make in time grrrr.. Erhm.. Well, a good thing is the MS Internetkeyboard Pro! Really rocks, fast good and alot of good extra buttons. PS2 and USB interface and a USB hub in it too... ??? lost myself, I´m about to go looking! ------------------ WOLF WINS EVERY FIGHT BUT ONE, AND IN THAT ONE, HE DIES |

I used to have a hatred of Microsoft, the I started using Netscape...
Well you know about the hidden office options.. http://www.fortunecity.co.uk/campus/...0/ATT00552.gif I don't want to link.. I will put it on a page in a sec. Or when they let me edit my site. This was the version I found a while ago. One OS to rule them all, One OS to bind them, One OS to bring them all, and in the Darkness bind them, in the land of Microsoft, where the shadows lie Three OS for the BSDs under the Berkeley, Seven for the Microsofts in their boards of intel, Nine for Unix Servers doomed to die, One for the Great Linus on his wired throne In the Land of The Net where the Hackers lie. One OS to rule them all. One OS to find them, One OS to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them, in the Land of The Net, where the Hackers lie.

It gets worse...
http://www.hardocp.com/articles/windows/xp_piracy.html I can't imaine this. I change my computer around at least once or twice a month. I just can't seem to leave it alone for too long before cracking the case and tweaking or fiddling with something. Now they are telling me I can't do that. ------------------ "The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his." -General George Patton (1885-1945) |
