Talk about annoying the audience, a somewhat new trend in live local
TV news broadcasts in Chicago and I'll assume elsewhere the last few
years is to have a long shot showing the anchors in the foreground
while passerby on the street are shown since it now seems to be the
"in" thing to have a showcase studio at street level. Invariably some
yahoo stares or just has to wave or jump or down or do something dumb,
which in my options totally destroys the anchor's creditability making
the news, suppose to be a serious show, look more like a circus.

Even dumber is the director of CNBC's popular "Fast Money" show that
features motor mouth anchor Dyland Ratigan and four "experts" giving
stock tips each trying to out talk each other. While I find the banter
often interesting, the director constantly makes fast cuts to show one
of the experts not talking while you still hear the one that is. This
probably was a accident originally, but now it seems to be a "feature"
of the show with whoever the director switches to as soon as they're
aware the camera is on them they ham it up, like smirk or roll their
eyes or do something else silly while the other guy is still heard
talking. I don't get it.

Why should he HAVE to worry about what causes crashes? Any properly
running appliances, such a refrigerators, alarm clocks, etc., cause no
worry OR a need for detective work.

You plug them in and they do their job.

I built the system. Microsoft built the operating system. That is what
crashes and has so many security holes in it. Funny thing, I'm not
alone. Check it out:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...Vista+problems

I guess the "WOW" Microsoft use to use to describe Vista must be they
knew Google would find millions of people having problems.

Since you asked, consider this one:

http://security.itproportal.com/arti...rns-microsoft/

It seems Apple's popular browser Safari is a security risk on the
Windows platform and Microsoft just made an official request for
Windows users to stay away from it and not use it.

Oh this is indeed interesting. If you're a true blue Microsoft fan
you're trusting Microsoft crap like Defender and UAC to PROTECT you.

Well not so fast. This issue and THREAT is due to how Windows in both
XP and Vista handles executable files on the desktop, the most logical
place you would have a link to a browser.

Oh you remember, the very things Microsoft claims it wants to protect
you from with Defender and UAC. Guess those things don't work too
well. Surprise!

Honest, you Microsoft apologists make be laugh so hard my ribs hurt.

This newsgroup is overflowing with stupid comments. Many of them seem
to be coming from guys like you that can't stand to see anyone being
critical of Vista. Sorry to inform you it sounds like you have been
inflicted with the same fatal disease the resident troll Frank has
where the person just rants and screams and keeps making excuses for
Microsoft releasing crap.

With approximately 180 million computers running Windows XP and you have a
problem, does that tell you anything?

Re: Microsoft Taking Official Petitions to Keep XP Alive

Now YOU have a narrow mind. Do you constantly add new programs to an
appliance?
Do you infect them with the likes of Norton, Symantec or registry cleaners?
Wake up and compare apples to apples.

Since when is trying to correct you (an impossibility) make me sound like a
crackpot? I see, you're ALWAYS correct,
therefore, everyone else who disagrees with you is a crackpot. Who are you

D'Oh ! - The Future of Windows XP -according-to- Microsoft Corp.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...xp/future.mspx

Windows XP will be Gone in June 2008 ? - NOT !

MS Says - Windows XP Sales will Stop on 30 June 2008.

Note - Some Existing 'new' Old-Stock of Windows XP presently
in Retailers Inventory may be available until 2009 or longer.

MS Says - Technical Support [Service Pack Downloads] for
Window XP will be provided by Microsoft Corp until 2014.

OK - What is the Problem ?

Yeah -if- You buy a New Computer you will likely get stuck
with have Micorsoft's VISTA pre-installed -but- your Old PC
that is running Windows XP will have support for Five (5)
more years.

Hopefully within those Five (5) Years Microsoft will have
something better than VISTA as their latest super-dupper
OS : Plus you will have a lot of new Hardware to Want-to-Buy.

-ps- Five (5) Years is almost Two (2) Life Cycles in the ever
changing Softwave-and-Hardware Turn-Over-and-Upgrade
PC Users Dilemma.

and . . . that's the way i see it ~ RHF

Re: Microsoft Taking Official Petitions to Keep XP Alive

Adam Albright is an online bully, who wanders from forum to forum trying to
impress people with his vast knowledge and experience. He achieves this by
ridiculing anyone who might know something that he does not:

"My current job is to make idiots like you sound like crackpots."

He is seeking the attention and respect that he is denied in real life,
because no one, and I mean no one, respects a loser in real life. Even the
chickens in the barn yard peck at the loser hens unmercifully. People can
smell a loser like Mr. Albright, even through the medium of the Internet.
Even if he knows as much as he claims, and I doubt this very much, it is all
useless because he is a self admitted supernumerary, an outcast. He claims
to have retired twenty years ago, but I think you're wrong about him being
"too dumb to keep a job". It's his fulminating personality disorders that
keep him from working with anyone else.

The idea of making a petition to keep XP alive is silly though. They can
put 8 GB of memory and a TB of hard disk in a computer that would have had
128 MB and 10 GB when XP was released. All that space is just begging for
bloatware of the type that the Advanced Technology Group (if it is still
called that) in Redmond cranks out. I remember them well. Guys with CS
degrees and Indian surnames who worked on exotic products that never saw the
light of day when I was there. Looks like their day has come now.

Cheers,

Earle

I infect my fridge and freezer with all kinds of stuff. Some of it HOT.
I subject it to harsh cleaners and repeated slamming of the doors. The
alarm clock/radio gets subjected to the weirdest combinations of button
presses, especially in the morning. The processor in the clock keeps
ticking. The same with the processors in the dryer and microwave.

The power company subjects ALL my appliances to surges, spikes and
brownouts. So far, they've all survived, with the clock setting in the
microwave being the exception. That unit has no battery backup.

The point dave was making is that the computer and it's software should
be no different than a garden variety appliance. It should just work.

The bloated operating systems out there now are so convoluted in their
construction that even their makers have lost track of what's in the code.

The finer points of quality and care in the finished product seem to
have been lost in the mad rush to get unfinished work to market and more
people are voting with their wallet and NOT buying.

With all respect, I am now leaving this discussion. This can turn into a
never ending debate. Please, feel free to have the last word.

Why are you repeating this completely irrelevant stuff in a VISTA

AND in a shortwave radio group? What a DORK!
