Dear Michael:
The most valuable thing I have in this world is TIME. Yet, Dell Corp. and MicroSoft have conspired to steal my TIME from me. Both Dell and Microsoft had early indications that Windows ME had some serious problems, and when a program such as this operating system malfunctions, it is a time-comsuming problem for experienced operators, but a huge and often costly problem for less knowledgeable computer owners. In other words, WE got the royal shaft and there is no way of rectifying it, because Billionaires have a strong greedy streak and don't want to give a dime back, or spend a little to correct their mistakes.

It was like a train-wreck about to happen because of defective equipment. Technically, Windows ME was not up to par, and arguably, both Michael and Bill Gates MUST have known that users would suffer through many problems. It was like selling a car that had potential defects and a dash-board with too much technical information that most drivers would find confusing, too difficult to understand, and as a result, they'd have more than the normal amount of accidents.

Lawyers would make fortunes from such problems. Millions? No, billions. Yet, shipped all over the world were millions of copies of Windows ME, a system that many (millions?) will state emphatically is unstable and offers sub-par performance. But, both Gates and Dell are insulated from those like me who would like to bring this to their attention. The new Corporate Goons are men in casual dress, thin wirey men who talk in circles and fight off complaints or attacks with words instead of swords or martial arts. Billionaires don't care that they've screwed the little people; they're safe in their modernistic earth-quake proof castles.

Independent thoughts. Politically incorrect? So what! Freedom of speech is just that, freedom of speech. Many Universities no long seem to subscribe to the Second Amendment. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS COMMUNIST PROPAGANDA WRIT SMALL. (Theodore Dalrymple).

Name:Howarde
Location:Solvang, California, United States

Born in Ohio in 1924, which leaves the arithmetic to you. Raised in New Jersey on the banks of the Hudson River, where I often watched all the activities on the river, such as maiden voyages of the English liner, S.S. Queen Mary and the French liner, S.S. Normandie, the large vessels docking on the N.Y. side of the river. Spent five years at sea as a Merchant Seaman, rank of Purser. Sort of like roaming the world during and after WWII.
