Microsoft has something called "Windows Media Center Edition". It costs
MORE than standard Windows because MS has to pay LICENSES to the people
who
WROTE the **** that you want for FREE.

Where do you work? I want to come in and get some free samples. On
second
thought, they're probably defective, like your thinking.

What part of the term shareware didn't you understand. Was it the
part of try it and buy it or the fact that it's cheaper than
professional versions?

Just curious you understand because apparently morons seem to have
difficulty with the concept.

Ummm not so fast. You also *said* that Bill should have included it for
free.

Ever consider how many "freebies" already come bundled with Windows just
because it's in Microsoft's best interst to bundle all the freebies? All an
OS *owes* you is an OS to run and possibly maintain your hardware. Most of
the stuff under your "start menu" other than "system tools" and
"admisistrative tools" is freebies already. And back in the DOS days you
even had to pay a third party (like Norton) extra fome some of those system
utilities.
