I would totally agree that that is a fairly accurate description of an average Windows install. But while being a long drawn out process I sure would not call it hard.
The myth of 'Windows is Easy to Install' must be crushed
I think that by listing all of the tedious (yet easy) steps involved you have disproved your argument. Windows really is easy to install. And by the way, this is not a flame or anything but why are you installing office on a server? Just curious.
O.K.,
Neuromancer the movie (in case you didn't know) has been in the planning stages for a loooong time. Here is a Link. That provides a lot of good information.
And for those of you who have not read the actual William Gibson book, NEUROMANCER, here is a link to an online version of it, go here.
The other thing I don't understand is that necessity to own a gun. I've heard many "I need a gun to protect myself from other people with guns". Now, what if there are no guns? Suddenly, you don't need a gun to protect yourself.
The problem is that if you outlaw guns then the law abiding honest people will just be unarmed while the criminals will still have their guns.
I believe that the solution to the violence in our society is many times more complex than just taking guns away from people. We need to change our media around so that it stops glorifying violence. Sexual repression is also often a cause of great eruptions of violence; so we should show pr0n on daytime t.v., violence would noticably drop.
You are scared that the security cameras will catch you, so wear a bunch of really thick bulky clothing, a wig, a fake beard, sunglasses, put a rock in your shoe so that you change your gait, changing your looks temporarily is not that hard to do.

atomic sex mutants, alien sex fiends, sex fiends in mirrorshades.....
Sounds very cool to me! What are some other pulp sci-fi books that you would recommend that are filled with radioactive sex vixen and the like?

Yes, today I am a karma whore. Mod-up please.
Because its OPEN SOURCE, STUPID.
What does being able to read the source code have to do with the lack of standards that this guy is talking about?
So its open source, so what. We still need standards.
Do you even know what schizophrenia even is? Clue: Schizophrenia has absolutely NOTHING to do with split personality.
Because all they have to do is pull the CMOS battery or whatver is powering the BIOS long enough so that the BIOS resets.
If I had mod points I would mod you up. What you say is gospel truth.

Actually, all death can be attributed to lack of oxygen to the brain...
