On June 30, Microsoft is scheduled to pull the OEM distribution plug
on Windows XP. In 30 days. That's all before the older operating
system largely disappears from new PCs. The "largely" qualifier is
because downgrade rights will still be available to some customers,
and system builders can ship PCs with XP through January 2009.

The next 30 days are crucial for anyone still wanting to easily obtain
Windows XP on new PCs. But why wait? Why not try Vista, and only
Vista, for the next 30 days? Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock pioneered the
30-days concept in the movie "Supersize Me," where he only ate
McDonalds food for, you guessed it, 30 days. The concept continues in
the FX series "30 Days." I don't believe that Morgan has done a 30-day
stretch with Windows Vista, but maybe he should.

I remember watching Supersize Me. Scary what a diet of fast food and
nothing but can do to your body in as little time as a month.

Unofficial survey question on fast food French Fries:

I LOVE French fries. I'm sort of a French fry snob, thus the reason
for me asking. Occasionally, when stopping at some fast food joint,
regardless if McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, all of them, you end up
with some disgustingly greasy, limp, soggy fries. I know which
location you stop at makes all the difference... at least that's been
my experience, so I'll drive past my local McDonalds to go to one
that's a few miles further just because they almost always do the
fries right.

Anybody else have similar experiences?

I've actually inquired since McDonalds is headquartered in the Chicago
area and I happen to know somebody that works in Oakbrook. The reason
this happens (as told to me) is the jerk that cooks them puts too many
fries at one time in the fryer. Since they're frozen, some fries near
the middle of the basket may remain partially frozen longer and end up
soaking up too much oil thus rendering them disgusting. You never will
get a whole order of soggy fries, but sometimes enough to spoil your
meal.

Finally if you love fries like I do. really GOOD fries, you really
need to make them yourself.

Get yourself a Delonghi Roto Fryer. It ain't cheap, about $100, but oh
baby does it make great fries and everything fried, like chicken,
fish. The secret is it rotates the food basket so you use far less
oil. Only use peanut oil, yea, I know, that's the most expensive oil.
For really great fries preheat and cook at 370 degrees between 4-5
minutes if you start with frozen fries, yummy and perfect. Light
golden brown, slight crunch on the outside just a tad soft but still
firm on the inside and hot! I HATE cold fries too. Now I'm hungry,
guess what I'm going to eat. LOL!

Watch it now, you might upset him and he will throw a temper tantrum. He's
so tightly wound now that he can't use his computer correctly. He might
heaven forbid go postal on it.

Based on what your reading comprehension is of this thread, I would suspect
that you didn't bother to read any of my other comments. Considering that I
have 1 XP laptop, 3 XP desktops, 2 Vista Laptops, and 1 Vista Desktop says
to me that I spend quite a bit of time in the computer realm. In fact,
probably several hours of the day outside of work. Perhaps you're less than
capable using Vista or learning how not to crash a computer system would be
educational for you.

I don't sit around and install new updates every time. One because I use all
my computers more than that. I have computers for different purposes. One
primarily for amateur radio software and music not to mention media mixing.
Another is for website development and business. 2 are for personal pleasure
one desktop and the other laptop. The other couple get a lot of web usage.
One pretty much has thousands of songs on it. You might learn something from
some of the posters here. No small task to keep all those computers running
in top shape. Something else that eludes you.
