Microsoft Video Blunder

An anonymous reader wrote in with this gem: "Microsoft was trying to show that a PC loaded with Windows 3.1 took longer to access the Internet than a PC loaded with Windows 98 using Internet Explorer. It turns out that the Windows 98 PC was connected to a faster modem than the Windows 3.1 PC. " I'll refrain from (further) comment on this one. Plenty of meat here. Update: 02/10 09:25 by J : Oops. More like "from the egg on my face dept." - it seems I made an honest yet huge mistake: the article says "configuring". Sorry I couldn't update when I realized this. There were some DB troubles, which seem to now have been fixed. Sincerest apologies to all.
