system wouldn't let me yell, so i typed it in yell 1337 script
really? then i guess doing it through megabytes isn't good
but if you just do an estimation of about how many messages per account, then the numbers should work out, right?
OK
8000 messages is equal to about 550 megabytes (including some attachments)
Most people have multiple accounts - lets say 3 per person
Most people have filled theirs up anywhere from 300 - 1000 megabytes (excluding attachments)(probably not true, but lets just say)
so lets say that they have filled theirs up at about 800 megabytes per account
so that is 2400 megabytes, or 34000 or so emails
problem a. Where would you store it?
problem b. How would they ship it easily?
problem c. How many printers would they need?
problem d. How long would it take to print all of these?
problem e. What if they were to ask for, like it said in the article, 10000 COPIES OF EACH???
So, its all good and well that this is april fools:P
Now, if only this didn't have to go through a lawsuit... and microsoft would just give them the money... for free... not on april fools... because they felt like it...
but, what are the chances of that ever happening?
i probably should disconnect my internet for the next 11 hours... i was asleep before so it didn't matter... but now...
