I dont want to put a damper on this, but I purchased a comp for my lady a couple of weeks ago and installed an unpatched version of winXP Pro. While I was copying files (firewall,anti-virus) from my computer to cd my lady decided to test her new machine, I dont think she would have been online for 10 minutes and that was long enough for her to pick up a trojan. I cant imagine any unpatched Win PC lasting a hour, but it could still be good for a laugh. The sooner I find a cheap computer to install linux on so I can start learning more about it the better. Bill Gates may be a smart businessman, but if most manufacturers produced a product that had as many faults as MS software they would be bankrupt. Its rubbish and will remain that way while they have over 90% of the market.
