Interesting Install Tid Bit
This is a discussion about Interesting Install Tid Bit in the Windows Hardware category; I was reading those stupid billboard messages during the WinXP install (yes I have nothing better to do) and I noticed this little piece of text See How Innovation Works For You Can we say corporate propaganda anyone?

well, not really, it's just an obvious fact about it, it's true, the innovation exists and it does work, so it's not really propaganda, it's a fact.
you want to know propaganda, here is one
"Try the new AOL version 6.0! The easiest just got easier!"
Quote from some lamer using it:
"AOL is the best!"
now that's propaganda and it's NOT facts, haha

"It's Fast!"
"It's Fast!"
OP
question...how can a person call dial-up fast???
AOL Sucks
Dial Up sucks
many things suck
sometimes they suck in a good way
some sucky things are also good but all in all there is a vast distrobution of suckiness about

i guess when they've never eXPerienced anything faster than dial-up or sat around waiting for w4r3z to download, then it would be considered fast.
well, the same people using AOL are the same ones that you could convince that
deltree /Y C:\*.* in a DOS prompt would delete any illegal stuff. and that would do it too

ahh..the 'ol deltree /y. Great way to screw up your system, but I would still argue "rm -rf /" on a UNIX box would still hose your system more. Then again, there are more ways to destroy a UNIX system than list directories, so it's not like that's a good thing =]
same ppl who can't tie their own shoes but are well capable of doublie-clicking any .vbs file they receive thorough email and then wonder why their computer is suddenly sick.
Common rule: most people who screw stuff up on their computer are too stupid to know jack about keeping it safe.
Kinda like people who see the nuke launcher button and go "I wonder what would happen if I pushed this?"
Go to http://www.dumbentia.com and look for the StupidaMouse. It's for stupid users.
BTW, we dropped AOL cuz they tried to double bill us. AOL and Rambus are 2 companies I will boycott.

Hey, Brian, that's how I learned all I know about computers; "Gee, if I push 'N' I'll never find out what happens at the FORMAT command."
But I agree with you. If they were made to clean up their own messes (like I had to do), then it actually make for some informed users...but that'll never happen.
