I would have expected Ballmer to call the afflicted computer a p*ssy and throw a f***in' chair at it.

"This really opened our eyes to what goes on in the real world," Allchin told the audience.

So all those effin' screams and emails and calls and articles and stories in the various media never piqued your interest before?

....so now they want to charge us all an annual fee to try to deal with problems that Windows shouldn't have in the first place!! I hadn't been one of the Microsoft-haters before (just don't devote any thought to them), but I might start now!! They should be addressing these problems as basic product support, not as an opportunity to screw us over again. I recently had a really bad infestation that took an expert quite an effort to clean up - it would block any changes to the registry aimed at getting rid of the sucker, but fortunately there was a script available at some techie website that finally did the trick.

Everybody likes to bash Microsoft, but you wouldn't leave your doors and windows wide open and invite any stranger to come into your house and hang out forever.
