I wholeheatedly agree. Trillian kicks much ass. Haven't loaded up any other clients since I installed it. Even got a couple of the sales droids to use it.

The most telling line in the whole email...

On: MS Struggles to Discredit Linux

that makes me think it actually is real is the following:

"We have the best d*mn sales force in the world backed by the best engineers in the world."

Only a marketroid would think that the salesmen are more important than the engineers.

Re:Watch TV?

On: U.S. Logo-Free TV Broadcast Organizations?

Even worse is TLC. They have this animation for some of their shows that will just pop-up during the middle of a program, complete with sound effects that completely drown out the volume of the show you are actually watching. It usually lasts for 5 seconds or so. The one for Junkyard Wars is the worst. It's a car that pops-up with crashing sound effects, then drives off screen. Really annoying.

I also hate when the local stations decide to put their logo next to the Network logo. One of the local stations here in Orlando is particularly bad about it(WFTV - ABC Affiliate). I could care less what station a show comes on, since I use my Tivo to time shift just about everything I want to watch.

So turn off script debugging.

Go to tools-> Internet Options...
Advanced Tab-> Browsing Section:
Disable Script Debugging.

Check it and you won't have to see it anymore.
