Recently one of my friends, paid me a visit. As we were talking I mentioned having recently installed Windows Vista on my PC. I also showed him the Windows Vista CD, and to my surprise he threw it into my micro-wave oven and turned on the oven. Instantly I got very upset, because the CD was expensive, but he said: 'Do not worry, it is unharmed.'

After a few minutes he took the CD out, gave it to me and said: 'Take a close look at it.' To my surprise the CD was quite cold to hold and it seemed to be heavier than before. At first I could not see anything, but then on the inner edge of the central hole I saw an inscription; an inscription finer than anything I have ever seen before. The inscription shone piercingly bright, and yet remote, as if out of a great depth:

'I cannot understand the fiery letters,' I said.

'No,' he said 'but I can. The letters are Hex, of an ancient mode, but the language is that of Microsoft, which I shall not utter here. But in common English this is what it says:

One OS to rule them all, One OS to find them,
One OS to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

Thats utterly scary :teeth: , but not surprising. what billy boy doesnt realize is that Vista is a half baked bull cookie that will be responsible for many nails in the windows coffin as vista is more hassle then its worth.

Long live XP, and then after its RIP mac here i come :D .
