It is not much of an upgrade either. The computer slows down, programa and
game no longer work, files get 'locked' in a variety of ways and there are
plenty of bugs, many of which are "high impact", according to Microsoft.

everytime you say things like this i just think of that cult of people
who send around .doc files. i dont want to communicate with people who
talk in .doc format, but they do not wish to use something else, so
they discredit those without word. --Ed, c.o.l.a.
