  • Take it from me. I started with windows 3.0 and been using windows all my life. I am a computer systems analyst Microsoft has always had its issues in a company environment. We would buy from Microsoft a special edition of the windows for the moment in this one was tested fully today you do people do not do this.

This is not new. Microsoft should be sued.
