Microsoft Plus

[X123]

How many people would pay for 4 Desktop themes, some media player utils and 3 games where you must pay more to get the extra levels? That is what plus is. I wouldnt pay for this piece of shit but I reccomend downloading it off kazaa.

Plus is a good program if you get it for free.

[Calum]

hmm, how many people would pay for it? well how many people paid for XP?

and as for it being a 'good program', didn't you just describe it? sounds pretty shit to me, also how do you expect i'll run it in linux if i do download it on 'kazaa' (that bastion of windoid exploiting spyware)?

sounds like a heap of CRAPP to me.

[Bazoukas]

sorry but  wouldnt pay for it or help spread the virus by downloading it from a p2p program.

[pkd_lives]

It does not sound like this product has anything to offer at all. At least not to anyone who can actually understand the phrase desktop background, and know how to select an item from a menu, and utilities for a media player that cannot play all the major codecs...'nuf said.

And use Kazaa ... well even if I could (they have dropped the linux version because all the spyware kept getting edited out) I wouldn't it has NOTHING TO OFFER ME.

Kinda off-topic, but you can run kazaa-lite in Wine.

[Fett101]

Hell. I wouldn't even waste my bandwidth to get plus.

As for kazaa on wine. Argh. (sorry. Havn't gotten it yet, even after copying those files from a regular install that I hear you have to copy)

[Kintaro]

Dont use kazaa, all the software is virii.

[Fett101]

My 120GB HD proves otherwise.

[Doogee]

virii is not the corect term that is only for one particular language and the word virus does not come from this language. Viruses is in fact the correct term i beleive.

[Calum]

virii is not correct in any language. and even if he used the correct term 'viruses' or even 'virus' (another correct plural for virus) it would still be wrong as he said 'is' when he should have said 'are'.

[beltorak0]

technically the word virus (from the originol latin) is a plural word with no singular meaning or form.  kinda like elohim (for those that know hebrew).

[Kintaro]

I dont give a shit do i.

SEE BECAUSE IF I GAVE A SHIT I WOULD REPLY TO THIS AND I HAVE REPLYED SO YES I GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU CRITISIZEING ME...

(And zombie does a simlar thing, he has to say things are not bothering him or he didnt do it, if it was true he would keep his mouth shut. So zombie did do lots of it.)

It is.

Latin grammar:
virus is the singular nomativus(=subject) of the word virus. Virii is the plural nomativus of the word virus.

=-)

[Calum]

and elohim is a nice word because it contains singular, plural, masculine and feminine all in one word. no wonder they dropped it quicksmart as a name for god. too inclusive. not enough excuses for a war.

[TheQuirk]

Bah. I'll package my .wine directory and give it out to people who want it so they can run KaZaa Lite...

I'll reply in a few hours.
