Slashdot Mirror
Talk to the Man Who Wants to Oversee Microsoft
Imagine "campaigning" for a job that doesn't exist, may never exist, and is sure to be full of heartburn for anyone who takes it on. Stephen Satchell is a self-declared candidate for the three-person committee the Feds might appoint to ensure Microsoft's future good behavior. Satch is certainly qualified; he's been online nearly forever, he's worked with computer operating systems darn near as long as computers have had operating systems, and he's certainly not afraid to speak his mind. But even the best-qualified job candidates need to be interviewed before they are chosen, and Satch has consented to have Slashdot readers conduct the initial interview in this hiring process. One question per interviewer, please. We'll email him 10 of the highest-moderated questions, and post his answers next week.

ASSISTANCE
DEAR SIR/MADAM
Am writing to request for your help.I am Mac Raymond,
from the republic of zimbabwe currently residing in
johannesburg as an aslyum seeker. It might be a
surprise to you where I got your contact address, i
got your address from a trade journal from the south
africa chambers of trade and commerce here in
johannesburg.
During the current crises against the White farmers in
Zimbabwe by the supporters of our President Robert
Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms in our
country, he ordered all the white farmers to surrender
their farms to his party members and their followers.
My father a citizen of the country although a black
indegen, did not support the President's political
idea.As the problem continues many of the white
farmers were killed including some of the black that
was working with them in which my father was a victim.
He was killed and his farms were taken over by the
president supporters.After the death of my father, my
mother and I together with my younger brother decided
to move out of Zimbabwe for the safety of our lives.On
our depature we took along with us the money my
father kept with my mother which amounted to the
US$15,000,000 (FIFTEEN
MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS)to the Republic of South
Africa where we deposited it as family valuables in
a private security company and seek for political
asylum.
My mother suggested and I agree that we have to
further move out of the
African continent to overseas for actual safety and
investments.Therefore we have decided that we should
contact any reliable overseas person/firm/company who
could assist us to transfer this money out of South
Africa through a current investment account.Our
status as refugee do not allow us to operate any
account exceeding ($2.000 united states dollars.
We need you to open an account here in south Africa
through which we can transfer this money to your
country.
If our request is considered, for assisting us
to Transfer this money to your country, we will offer
you 15% of the total fund,85% will be for me and my
family to invest in your country under your
assistance.
For detailed information, you can contact me on
TEL:27-83-979-6671
NOTE: FOR REASON OF OUR ASYLUM STATUS PLEASE MAINTAIN
ABSOLUTE
CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECRECY.YOUR URGENT RESPONSE WILL
BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
KIND REGARDS
MR MAC RAYMOND
dear sir, have you ever used a commodore to download movies to your chicken coop?

Is this a bad troll, or are you just an idiot?
Can you dance around like a deranged monkey boy like Steve Balmer? God, that video was hilarious.
Crackpipe Moderators: this is a joke.
Moon Macrosystems. Sun's biggest competitor.
There is a new site that requires a lot of trolling attention. The site is www.vegdot.org and is a site based on Scoop that descusses the vegan lifestyle. Since vegans are all uptight militant lesbians, there is nobody that can be more frustrated by trolls. So give it to them.
So, uh, vi, emacs, or Word?
Why don't you try to find a real job? Surely a technical guy like yourself is employable by someone.
Have you seen Ironstayn vs Supergovernment yet?
Damnit, someone mod this up; I'm want to know.
How much money would it take to buy your unconditional support of Microsoft and all it does and stands for?
Q: Given one object, and one orifice, which object would you choose to stick in which orifice of Mr. Gates?
Seriously though, couldn't you find more important uses of your time than a maybe-job like this?

... Please. My 8-year-old has more expertise than this wannabe has. Someone had better tell this guy that we're using Cathode-Ray Tubes now, and that punch cards are no longer considered high-tech.
Man that was all going along so well right up to the 'or are you going to mope in a corner.'.
I pissed myself.
Will you be wiping whatever it is Larry Ellison left running down the corner of your mouth before you next appear in public?
Do you have any bad habits?
<a href=Hi,.I'm.the.page.widenere.man!.I'm.here.to.w
Beverly Crusher, Deanna Troi or Tasha Yar?
If you were blocking sigs, you wouldn't have to read this.
