158 Pages of Microsoft's Dirty Laundry
KrispyRasher writes "Even internally, Microsoft couldn't agree on what the base requirements to run Vista were, but that didn't stop it from inaccurately promoting the OS as running on some hardware. 158 pages of Microsoft internal emails reveal scandalous truths about the squabbles that took place in the lead up to Vista's launch."
There is a first post here.

H0l@ anarch@-femipunk companyer@s!! To promote the building of a sustainable culture of horizontal networks and safe spaces within radical movements for queered feminisms of alternative resistance to empire(s) in the Third World and the B@rrios, the Nestle Family Foundation and the Defense Advanced Research Projects group at Harvard University, in cooperation with SPREAD, the magazine for leftist wannabe whores and their male-identified allies in the progressive/activist community, announces a spokesconsulta for all anarch@-femipunks and their allies (free childcare and vegan food included) Guest speakers: Noam Chompsky and some black dude who told me he used to be a Panther. This spokesconsulta is not the place for authoritarian politics or for the unilateral imposition of western heteronormative white-supremacist modalities like voting or decision making, but for growing plural safe spaces and communities of alternativeness to the global dominant genders of discourses.
Tomorrow: meet at Harvard Square at 12 noon sharp, look for the kool kidz wit da spikey hair.

You are a male chauvinist manarchist who has silenced the voice of me, a working class latina woman of color anarchist woman girl. When I demanded that you apologize for your crimes against bell hooks you did but with insufficient fervor and too loudly and in a tone that might have been a coded male supremacist mocking tone that silenced my oppressed voice that speaks for the zapatista women of the third world! I and the Women's Caucus and its male-identified and intersexed/pangendered allied anti-oppression caucuses and consultae of the Northeast Anarchist Horizontality Ivy League Campus Auxiliary Federation call you out and remove you from our Facebook pages and disinvite you from our dorm parties.

WE are revolutionaries: we have discarded all the old dogmas and isms and are building a new world within the shell of the old. Power to the people!

so obviously this is a troll fake post and will be deleted. I get the whole critique of the strong identity politic leaning coming out of SDS, but just out of curiousity, why are you inluding a NEFAC link?
Why are you such a sectarian

Wondering, spare us your bullshit ideology. I am walking the walk creating worker struggles against authority and hierarchy for industrial democracy! That is why I photocopied this thing for my pizza shop to organize the superexpoloited pizza shop industry for anarchist communism. Keep hawking your stale vanguardist bullshit ideology wondering, you will never approach the tremendous earthshaking achievements of anarchist communists like me who have rewritten the history of humynkind!!!!!!!!! DOWN WITH THE SOVIET UNION AND CHINA!!!!!!
