Are you using a laptop? Because I find that this is most often the case when it happens to me (which, is very rare since I avoid using the touchpad at all times).
What I do to avoid it is a) making sure I turn the touchpad off when I do a lot of typing (I usually tab through fields unless the person who coded them made them in a weird order). and b) turn the palm detection threshold up on the touchpad (this is only on more recent synaptics touchpads though I think)
I can just see the Apple fanbois with Mod points modding you down to -1, Flamebait.
I for one, hope that they grow some of their own iBalls and don't, but don't count on it.
For the number of you people bashing Microsoft, a hell of a lot of you are looking at those screenshots, so if you don't like Vista, please get off the damn site.
I hope people realize that what he quoted is totally out of context. The person he quoted said nothing even remotely close to what that statement implies...
It truly is amazing how many idiots keep asking the same question: "how does it work to get 50,000 emails to 1.2/5m subscribers????111omglOL! 0.04EMAILS !!!!"
If you think, MAYBE, they send a single email to MORE THAN ONE PERSON, you could distribute MULTIPLE COPIES of the SAME EMAIL to DIFFERENT PEOPLE.
So ACTUALLY, there are probably more than 1.2M or 1.5M INDIVIDUAL EMAILS, but only ~50,000 unique emails.
I hope this clears things up and people stop asking this damn question.

Bitter much?

Lets hope the distraction is large enough that we get less story dupes...

Um, actually: 50,000*3 = 150,000.... you need another zero to get 500,000*3 = 1,500,000 Seems like YOU need the math lesson here....
