Gates Admits Stripped Down Windows Possible

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well-of-course-it-is dept.

ChristTrekker writes "The Financial Times reports that Bill Gates admitted a stripped-down Windows is possible after all." This kinda contradicts a lot of other stuff he's been saying. There's a few bits in the article worth a read.

    Oh yeah one thing: What clock??!?!?!? They counted the votes in Florida (again and again and again...) and according to the electorial system Gore lost. While it may not be right - it was fair according to rules that have been in place for over 200 years.

    If you want to deal with the problem - lobby to change the laws involved instead of making it your sig on some site nobody but geeks who probably love their computers more than most people visit.

    This isn't meant as a flame, and I don't really care about Karma... I'm posting this because I would like to discuss it. That said, I'll continue

    Are you one of those kids whose parents didn't give them a good, hard spanking with a thick leather belt when you did something you were told not to do? We, as Americans, have agreed to live here and by the rules of the elected government. That includes businesses. As my father once put it "As long as you live under my roof, you will live by my rules." Well, how about instead of worrying about the other kids who get to play in the street, why not truly punish the kid who did, even after being caught and being told numerous times not to. Spank them, send them to their room, don't let them go out and play with their friends, don't let them play video games. Make them do homework. Make them reflect. Make them a responsible citizen and member of our family. That is why we have a judicial system.
