,----[ Quote ]
| Recently, Microsoft is luring you with a tag line like this: "Windows and
| Dell are proud partners of (PRODUCT) RED™ — New PCs designed to help
| eliminate AIDS in Africa."

| This is one of the most abject way of creating a psychological dependency of
| Windows Vista Ultimate: making people buy it for giving them the peace of
| mind that they helped to save lives in Africa!
