Right, so what are they gonna rename it to? Last time they promised to get rid of something it was the Unrecoverable Application Error, which they simply renamed to General Protection Fault.

Are they going to remove the spyware from that [Vista]?

You already have the spyware free version of Vista. To locate it go to your suppy of blank CD-R discs. Take the first one off the stack. That is your spyware free Vista disc…

Windows Genuine Advantage? Hmmm. this sounds suspicious.

What advantage and for whom is the advantage?

My answer is that there are no advantages to anyone, including Microsoft. For computer uses maybe he advantage is that this may turn into amn MS reputation black eye for deceiving the customes and MS will have to lower it’s prices to stop a Linux stampede.

The last time I received the benefit of an advantage like the MS one was when a policemen gave me a ticket at a check point, for driving with an expired license, It cost me $500.
