solemnwarning:
My cable works on whatever the hell I plug the ethernet cable into, even a 486 with windows 3.11!

Refalm:
My cable connection too, except for Windows ME.

--- Quote ---Now in the professional world, Windows Update gave me quite a problem. To circumvent a patent about loading dynamic content into a website, Microsoft brought out an update that requires you to click on a Flash file before it's loaded.
Some people like this, but it's hardly nice to force everyone to have this. What's even more stupid is that this update is rolled out all around the world, even here, where software patents do not exist (yet).
If Microsoft wants to annoy yanks to possibly prove a point fine, but don't drag the rest of the world allong with it.
