Title: notice how Microsoft doesn't have a forum?
Post by: Chooco on 16 June 2002, 01:53: i've searched for an MS forum to solve my problems for a long time but i have never found one and the one that seemed like it was a forum did not end out to be one....the url was http://microsoftforum.com (http://microsoftforum.com) or maybe it was http://microsoftforums.com (http://microsoftforums.com)

"we closed the complaints department because we were getting too many complaints" :D
