Short version: Bite me. Long version:
No, the fundamental difference is that I would have done some research first, documented what I _had_ done in any message that I sent out, which I would do only having read any appropriate FAQ's, I wouldn't post the request more than once, I wouldn't flag it as "urgent", and I wouldn't expect list members to drop everything to help me out. And if I _did_ consider it urgent, then I'd drop a dime and call in MS support. But then again, that's just me, and that's kinda why I answer questions (sometimes) rather than asking them. On the other hand, the original post, and your response, are one of the reasons that I don't hang around here very much anymore. Or why a lot of other very experienced and knowledgeable folks either (a) don't play here any more, or (b) have more intelligent places to play.
