Not only that, by my count it would be their *first* idea.  If in fact it was their idea, which I'm sure it wasn't but it wouldn't be unlike them.

too bad its not the first time i think that they have used the technologie either. think about the xbox not haveing the ability to run abirtray code is a good example, hmmmmmm.......

They were more then adequate, their great!...Since i got my mac with osx i hardly even touched my pc, but then i installed mandrake and it was like a whole new world.  It not only does what i want and dosent spy on me, it's some thing new to me so i get to play around for hours trying to learn about it.  My friends all think im a nerd now, cause lately ive just been staying at home on my computer messing with linux. But it's all good, it's fun.  [edit] I've come to the conclusion XP is a complete pile of worthless shit.  It's by far a downgrade from 98. All they did was put a ugly skin on it, change the names of a few folders and add ten times as many useless programs and "services".  But dont forget the new start menu for easier access, this is suck a crock XP sucks...Also ive noticed everytime i do a search on my computer norton blocks C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe trying to access the net, im going back to winME it's not that bad compared to XP...
