I had to chuckle when I read your post. I am an on-site computer tech guy (the PC/Mac Guru) and when I first set up someone's email I frequently send an email from the client to the client to check if everything is OK. Always in a hurry, I usually type giberish in the message window. At the same time, I also send a copy to myself so I have the client's email address for my database when I get back home. To Bush, these frequent emails I get with strange characters from random strangers must look very peculiar indeed.
1. I have mod points.
2. I have suffered from depression.
3. Posting a comment means I can't mod you up, and had you written something else the possibility exists that might have modded you up.
4. Prophet!!!... Oh Christ, off to hell for me. NOT. LOL!!!
Merry Holidays!!!
I remember an Outer Limits episode where the aliens were found with a book titled TO SERVE MAN. Everyone applauded their higher, noble goals... then somebody figured out that it was a cookbook.
P.T. Barnum used a sign with the above printed on it, which of course caused people to hurry on the next, and perhaps even more amazing exhibit. Soon enough they realized that egress means exit in French.
If you think about it, maybe this post is on-topic.
The post reminded me of an old wine quote which I've used quite often... Just take a sip and say, "A naive domestic with little breeding, but I'm amused by its presumption."
You got this exactly right. I was in an Apple Store sitting at the Genius Bar and a woman next to me was apoplexic about a nano she bought three days before, for her 14 year old kid. It had a scratch on the screen and she wanted it replaced. I was sorry to see this lifetime Windows user so pissed off over her first Apple purchase. I am an Apple fanboy and although I come down on Apple's side in this issue, it is amazing that the company let things come to this point. Was useability testing compromised in a rush to market?
'While their leaders may act out in stupid and juvinile ways (throwing chairs anyone?), they are aware of the problem and will fight tooth and nail to keep from being dethroned.'
Exactly. Extreme programming now means code written while fighting tooth and nail.

Then let me introduce myself to you. I have only used BT, and never used Napster, Limewire or any of the P2P clients.

Bush did this so now they'll like us more!
If your client copied 50 'approximately 50 word/excel type files' then somebody should ask him why it took 5 CDs (and an hour) to do so.
Southern Civil War General Forrest always said, "Get there first with the most." And that's the answer to your question.
Seven,WTF? Is editing evil?
Screw Sony. Thanks for playing.
Metaphorically, its the same story here, no fear.
