Fair enough. But don't go to the ignorants of saying that it's someone telling you how to live your life and how much of your "own" money you get to keep. That's just not true. Sure, taxes are on the rise, but nobody tells anyone in a democracy how to live their own lives. Taxes are not a bad thing, it's the corrupt ways it's being spent that sucks. Don't be so quick to judge things out of context ("telling me how to live my own life")
I'm actually glad it was released early, because now Microsoft KNOWS this fact and also has learned that they cannot force people to use their new software as readily as they deem necessary.
I had the same problem with Centurytel a while back. Kept sending me ads, yet refused to hook me up because I was "too far" from the CO. I frankly could care less if the connection speed suffered because of the distance, I wanted a dedication line faster than internet. Luckily, less than a year later I moved to a metro area and couldn't decide on which provider I should take right away!

Yes, if only I could charge the Doctor or the Lawyer what he charges me when I fix his computer.
