Wish they had a 3D version of XBill. It could also be due to some programmer comments in the source code (including the kernel).

You don't suppose M$ had anything to do with getting that Rating do you? M$ XP should have a notice that reads "For children ages 3 and under. Noone over 3 allowed to view product. If you use this product and are over the age of 3, we can not be held responsible for you becoming dumber by using of this software".

I disagree, there should be a warning lable on the box reading:

NOT SUITABLE FOR HUMAN OPERATION.

M$ dosn't make you dumber, it just makes you complacant with mediocre shit.

i agree with both of you, it makes you dumber and more complacent to mediocre shit.

after using windows for a while you start thinking the way windows wants you to think, which is very illogical (like looking for file extension relationships in the view>folder options menu), therefore making you dumber.
But it at the same time you realize "how did i know that i should find the file ext. under 'view>folder options'? jeez, i must be thinking like windows......Ahhhhh!", but you still using windows every day, keep complaining about the way windows works. Yet, you think "crashing is part of life", well in life if you crash in a plane you die, its just too bad windows is to idiotic to give its own life. you keep noticing less and less about the inane workings of windows, because you have started working the way windows works, thinking the way windows thinks. Its like a disease spreading and taking control, The windows infectious disease of stupidity (WIDS).
