A Microsoft spokesman has declined to speak on this issue and said that the matter is under investigation. What I mean is, when you install the "WGA" it says personal information is _not_ sent to microsoft, so why is there any need to investigate, as they are NOT doing it?
On a more funny note : the spell checker (of course) thinks i should write microsoft with a capital; wasn't really expecting that:)
do these robots also scare the elderly and more conservative citizens with their foreign language and culture?
Because i won't have any part of it when old people are 'just fine' with it.
my parents will have no trouble pronouncing it

But on the flip side, parents will have a hard time pronouncing it ("Nintendo...why?")
My parents used to complain i spent too much time playing 'that sega', not playing 'the megadrive';-)
-)Check your e-mail once an hour, not constantely.
-)Have different IM accounts for work/private. When i'm working, i don't need to be talking to my niece about who just bought what car etc...
-)And only use the phone when it's urgent. If not, an e-mail will suffice. I know this is not something you can do yourself, but a little professional courtesy isn't asking too much, now is it?
Some SCi-Fi fans may need to visit their counselor after star trek getting cancelled, others just move on.
Just like all the other people with all them other city folk interests;-)
indeed.
Also i fail to see the step between 'announcing robots to watch childeren' and 'robots raising childeren'. Seriously, if you want to bash microsoft, do it on a basis of FACTS,and not your fantasy.

i mean : when you are designing your spyware/virus program, you try to get them installed on as much computers possible.
Now, what OS should i write em for?...
Ergo, if there should be a competor to windows that is equally in user size, only then should you be able to make a decent comparison on what is the safest OS currentely available.

can't a man post news about some rich guy donating money to a good cause without this turning out to be yet another (rolleyes) WINDOWS VS *NIX turf war?
And why is everybody linking gates' money-donation to where it came from? It's there, and it's going to charity. Those are the _facts_ . All the rest you're discussing are at most your personal opinions( as widespread as the may be)
but some other services that grow out of PA and it's cultus are USA only. Have you ever thought about the fact that's just a wee lil' bit ungrateful ( not that i don't see why , but the feeling remains )
