1) You won't be able to find anything anymore. 2) Stuff will disappear because you don't know where it is (hard drive, DVD, USB/FW storage). 3) When you backup/restore, you won't have a clue where it is and where it is supposed to go back.
But we will still be reading/writing 512-byte sectors to/from hard disks at the lowest level...
Thusly it will be more complex, thus more fragile and unstable. Ever build anything out of glue and toothpicks? What happened when the glue got wet? Or the structure got too big?It fell down.
Oh, don't forget, who really gives a shit about all these bells and whistles? It is part of the conspiracy to make you piss away your hard earned money or more software, hardware and bright, shiny blinky blink toys. Welcome to throwaway consumerism. The Great Evil of our time...
...er, why not just wrap it in DLL (written in C for small size and good speed) and objectify fadify it with a wrapper class? Then add some buzzwords to make it PHB compliant.
Except spyware/adware is equivalent to the pizza dude sprinkling cat|dog shit on your pizza just to make you eat it. Something you normally wouldn't do.
Personally, all the money spent on advertising is wasted on me. Simply because of the obnoxious ads, either content or running the same lump'o'doodoo 2 or 3 times in a row, I will not buy that product. Whenever an ad comes up, I either change the channel or radio station. Take that Ad Exec and smoke it.
Get off of your fat American arse, stop going to fast food joints and stuffing yourself with crap food, and push a frickin' vacuum cleaner around yerself you lazy smegin' slob!
Gadzooks! You really have your head up your backside. Mebbe been reading too many SF books? Watching way too many SF movies? The only thing that humanity has managed to demonstrate is how well we can truly f*ck things up out of ignorance, stupidity and selfishness. We are going to make ourselves extinct. And you know what? Humanity deserves this fate.

Bung Wu!
Lads, I am truly surprised that no one has commented on the "Longhorn" code name.
Longhorn's are cows. Cows produce two things in copious quantities:
1) Gas, AKA cow farts.
2) Cow pies, AKA shit.
So, just what is Microsoft trying to tell us???
Truly thoroughly completely scary...
Windows is going to be one frickin' huge web site!
Looks like XP...
And this will mean three things:
1) You won't be able to find anything anymore.
2) Stuff will disappear because you don't know where it is (hard drive, DVD, USB/FW storage).
3) When you backup/restore, you won't have a clue where it is and where it is supposed to go back.

Someone should very quickly grab "iWin" and then sell it to Billy Gates and his gaggle of money grubbing geeks...
Lawsuits man, class action, multi-billion dollar lawsuits...
> WinMX contains no adware or spyware. Neither does Gnucleus or eMule.
For how long? These days you can not trust anything...
Gator can lick my bumbaclot.

Perl and Java are your friends...

no, No, no
They got it all wrong.
It was a Ford Pinto exploding nearby that caused the glitch in the signal.
Get with it...

How about them faked moon landings, eh?
Here is a web site and project that tracks how IPv4 addresses are allocated and misused, i.e. hijacked: http://www.completewhois.com/statistics/index.htm
The way I read it, a huge percentage of IPv4 addresses are not even being used...
We use fibre here in Canada instead - much more hi-tech. Problem was moose guts wouldn't stretch far enough...

And best off all, it has a "Format C:" command!!!

Har! You give Microsoft too much credit. It would be more like "chmod uga+w" on all files.
Ever wonder why you have to have Administrator privileges on a Windows 2000 machine the first time you run Outlook 2000? Peckerheads.
Show me a Linux computer with months of uptime and I'll show you a computer that has not been correctly patched.
That's because Linux has this babe as their representative!
