Microsoft is "not guilty," but just to be cute, I'd love to set this as the guy's screen saver (when he's not looking):

The laptop I used to use had (installed by me) a version of the "Flying Windows" screensaver with IIRC a certain byte $FF (found shortly after the string "Wingdings") changed to $4D. Seemed apropos, but I wouldn't want to board an airplane with it.

Microsoft is "not guilty," . . .

Are you saying that Microsoft DID NOT restart Kewney's computer without his permission?

Granted, Kewney could have ameliorated his losses by saving his work... but I know of programs that process data, that if interupted, have to start over from the beginning. I would not be happy to find that MS had restarted my computer without my permission in the middle of a weeks long processing marathon.
