  1. Comment - German gov't fines Microsoft for 'influencing' Office resale prices

    Yeah, heaven forbid there's any kind of coordination between Microsoft and retailers. What a bunch of nazis.

  2. Comment - Vista, Antivirus: What If Allchin's Right?

    (Nov 14, 2006 - 2:43 AM)

    A good two cents, I'd say! You're right; Microsoft has I feel done all it can to protect the users computer. Everything else is up to the user himself and what he will do. I can imagine that before too long, many will want to disable UAC because it's "annoying" and then will complain after they've contracted a virus or some other malware on their system.

  3. Comment - Allchin Backs Off Antivirus Remarks

    I have to agree with you, Rej. An OS can only provide security to a point, because there is another user who can still do dumb things. A friend of mine where I used to work (with many who had work email accounts) said that there are people here who, if they received an email with an attachment that said "This is a virus, please click it" actually would do it! Plus, I can understand Symantec and McAfee being upset, since their bloatware AV and security applications earn them a lot of money.

    Maybe because New York is so large. Of course, I think San Jose is pretty big too, but probably not as many buildings like Manhattan has. And then there's Queens. That place in itself would take all year to map out!
