Speaking of Windows - did anybody watch ABC1's "Web Warriors" last night?
Should be required viewing for the average PC (ie Windows) user.
Should be supplied as the default tutorial CD shipped with the products.
A warning similar to cigarette advertising should me on the front of
every shipped box.
The company should be garnished by the the US govt for the damages costs
invoked by running MSW.
A ban on the products should be enforced by all govt agencies.

BBC News is running a front page story about how Unix turns 40 this

I think it's pretty amazing to see the 40th birthday of Unix get such
high-profile exposure...
So do I. Mainly because no one knows what it is or cares, so long as they
have the Gates Virus.
At 40, UNIX is just getting better, stronger, cheaper, faster, but no one
likes to be uncool.
If Windows makes 40, it would be a good indication of why the world is in
the situation it is today.
