Dont use anything Microsoft. Easy. Use linux and staroffice or koffice. dont go to msn.com (it sucks anyways), dont use hotmail (once again blows) and continue live uninterupted.
What I figure, most of the masses will follow along blindly and get herded into the pen as they have for many years now. For the rest of us, just dont play along.
I have a friend who is a game developer and who will remain anonymous (nda bleh). He has been working with the Xbox dev kit and recently has gotten his xbox test machines in order to test his levels and what not. He says there are no problems other than those which would be there while play testing levels.
I wouldnt count out the entire Xbox because some demo doesnt work. Could the code from the developer of that demo be crap? I have personally seen some of what will be on Xbox and it has some great potential as well as some top notch developers in line to make some great games.
Its too bad that when it crashes, and when it has problems, it will just be blamed on Microsoft. Oh well.

Yeah! I am happy now! Unless I dont get it. Then I am sad again.
Space rules me. As does /. :)
