Default Microsoft Taking Official Petitions to Keep XP Alive

Aren't YOU keeping up with technology. Did you buy a plasma or LCD TV set.
Are you going digital?
Crippled shareware indeed. I don't use virus programs either. I don't shell
out hundreds of bucks every 3 or 4 years. Your words not mine. If you do
that's your business. Media playthings?? Are you a child?

Your argument is totally ridiculous. The primary reason for Microsoft's
popularity is simply because it is so flexible.
What do you want your computer to do? Microsoft's OS does it. Who uses
Microsoft's OS? Everyone. Corporations and businesses alike.
Can't you get that through your head?


Corporations AND businesses? What's Google use? Are they neither?

Until you break free from the uptight and paranoid world of crippled
shareware and continuous virus scans; from having to shell out a hundred
bucks every 3 or 4 years for a new OS (then hundreds more for the
horsepower to run them); from having to pay hundreds of dollars extra for
compatible word processors and media playthings; you'll never understand.
