THANK YOU! All I need now is a worse version of windows. This "new" "stripped down version" will not contain many of the features of windows we have come to know and love: crashes, freezing, and it won't keep that old favorite, memory handling that requires more RAM than a 10-foot thick steel reinforced concrete doorway to dracula's castle. It will not include macros in outlook, buffer overflow vulnerabilities in uPNP, or even allow users to modify their settings in a way that will destroy their computer without a warning screen.
BUT there would be a upside to the remedy, including the fact that the new OS would cost less than a house (ok, less than a LARGE house) and will still run your computer. It may not allow you to access your files, but you will know they are safe. VERY safe. They are so safe that it will become uncertain if they even exist. It will have native support for high elvish, ojibwe, yoruba, aymara and, ever popular, frisian. These are the only languages it will support. Microsoft estimates that of the 87 people who speak one or more of these languages, 1 owns a computer. And he uses linux.
