DOS and Windows XP can both be considered as messages.

Except that in evolution, noise can be information. Some of the information is contained in the structure and attributes of molecules themselves. (In some ways, life is a property of matter.)

Again, using an imprecise model for life and then imposing the limitations of that model on life is not valid.

That's a non-sequitur. DOS and Windows XP can both be considered as messages REGARDLESS of your claim's validity regarding noise being information.

Please contain yourself to what was posted.
