Yup - was just there - bought a USB Hp scanner only to find, Haha! our 'old' version of WIn95 didn't have USB support, and none was available without buying a new pc for the oem sr2, thus we are FORCED to buy Win98, haha Gotcha!!
The people in the article are unwittingly suffering from the inequity of having a Win9x preinstalled - if they could only have a choice at time of purchase....
The general opinion here seems to be like what was written in an old book about the ibm os/360 project called the "Mythical Man Month" - if it takes 60 programmers 6 months to write an os, it will take 120 programmers only 6 months to write the same os.
BTW: If 8 perl programmers take 8 days to write 8 programs, how long will it take 16 programmers to write 16 programs? ANS: 8 days.
Jeez - this is so funny - it's just like the old Monty Python movie "Life of Brian" where the Israel zealots were having an underground meeting and John Cleese shouts, "Name one thing that the Romans have ever done for us!" and one by one people get up and say, Roads, the Aquaduct, currency, sanitation, military security, etc:))
