But, of course, Windows XP is sooooo much mo'betta, and so is the highly
touted Microsoft support, so long as you want to deal with guys whose
first and second languages ain't English and whose ultimate answer
usually is, "Well, just reload windows."

That is what you get with the OEM support. Microsoft can give you the
right answer if you have a retail key.


Oh, right. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, that was my experience with my retail keyed
Windozes.

I did get more help when I was a Microsoft Windoze beta tester.


You must have just been your same charming self you are here and they
****ed you.



I'm quite charming. Rec.boats gets the version of me it deserves, though
I admit it's difficult keeping up in nastiness with the right-wing
snarkasses here. I think I have four or five right-wing snarkasses in my
bozo bin, along with our terminally stupid Canadian "Scotty" friend, who
may or may not be a right-winger, but definitely is a snarkass.
