I've known this for years.

The M$ R&D department is Apple, wake up and smell the roses people.

I've seen this on a good number of Windows computers, but never on Linux, UNIX, or OSX.

World's Dumbest Upgrade Scheme, and it's for Windows 7!

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-10382953-56.html

When I obtained a free copy of Windows 7 RC, I was given a link from M$'s own site and then downloaded a normal ISO for a DVD to use.

Then there's this. WTF?

Windows 7? Is a bomb.

http://www.cnet.com/windows-7/

Here's the dope:

1. Companies don't want to upgrade from Clinton-era systems. So be it if it still runs 95, 98, 2000, ME or XP.

2. Companies can't take a risk in a bad economy.

Not even out, Winblow$ 7 has to be patched immediately

http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10374134-245.html?tag=newsLeadStoriesArea.1

Hey, I never said 7 was secure. In fact, I have to run SpyBot S&D, AVG and TweakAll to keep it secure. Same since Windows 95.

CNET thinks Bing stands a chance to Google

http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-10373891-264.html

I don't see Bing anywhere, just on TV commercials that suck.
