Satan’s new offerings.
May 10, 2006Tomorrow (Thursday), I am off to Wellington to spend a day being brainwashed trained in the use of Microsoft's wonderful new Operating System; Fister er whoops Vista. Vista is supposed to be Microsoft's answer to everthing including sliced cheese. Of course sliced cheese will now come with an End User Lisence Agreement that is liable to change without warning and prohibits you from actually eating the cheese.
Vista was also supposed to be released about 3 years ago but Microsoft discovered that the O/S sucked and started all over again. Consumer versions have been delayed until early next year for the same reason.(This worries me slightly).It has also cost more to create than was originally spent on the Apollo moon landing program, not that this means anything regarding quality or stuff like that.
Anyway it should be a good day looking at the nice shiny new Product, which will keep me in a job fixing the nice shiny new chaos that will probably come free with it. And of course there should be freebies, although the freebies I've got from Microsoft so far are'nt great 30 trials and a Moneybox that you have to assemble your self. (a bit like their software). This time around I hope to score something more useful like a pen or notepad.
