Bill Gate's ambitious project, exceedingly hyped and marketed...delayed for years before releasing..crahed on the day of first ever demonstration ....brought billions to Bill Gates making him target of anti-Capitalists ...earning ire of pro-UNIX lobby...sparked search for alternatives...gave boost to open-source community that saw rise of LINUX in following years....complicated upgrades one after the other till Vista ... and that dreaded blue screen earning a Windows a reputation of "Virus"...<BR/>To its credit Windows transformed a computer to a PC. It brought computer from high profile reseach labs to Average Joe's living room. <BR/>But then before we realised I think we have reached to an age where we take technolgy for granted. My mobile phone should be runing all day long without any call drops and playing all my videos while I am running on treadmill at 10 miles per hour. My OS must not hang or crash even if I do not reboot my PC for 1 year.<BR/>Who set these expectations? How do we know that Windows "must" be better than what it is today?<BR/>...we are still long way from that perfect techno world where things are optimum and perfect. For now nothing works out of the box for sure. Then they have those help desks and call centres. They can fix you anything. Only thing they dont understand English. Neither Hindi. Nor any language you know. But Micrsoft is training them. They are teaching them ".Net". Only when .Net sounds like English your problems will be solved. Till then good luck.<BR/><BR/>Well written blog. Good sarcasm from an anguished Windows user. As I read the first line I knew where is it going but I enjoyed it till end. I read your other blogs as well. Your blogging skills have come off the age. kudos...<BR/><BR/><BR/>regds<BR/>ADannoyingdumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598087709755141657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034972.post-44881165631820720742008-03-19T10:25:00.000-04:002008-03-19T10:25:00.000-04:00@hiren - the hidden motive of this post to earn go...@hiren - the hidden motive of this post to earn good karma. but till the time we can our saviour, we are doomed with vista<BR/><BR/>and Bhavesh's folder is with BHAVESH :)))))))Neohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881907285598583838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034972.post-26724338932564081972008-03-17T11:28:00.000-04:002008-03-17T11:28:00.000-04:00victim of the vista ... lol ... koi nahi dost ... ...victim of the vista ... lol ... koi nahi dost ... manushya apni galtiyon se hi sikhta hai .... think it as a scarifice that you have gone thru in order to protect ur friends from facing this traumatic vista virus ... <BR/><BR/>btw hope that the "Bhavesh" folder has not been lost due to format ;)Hirenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01178594986974262099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034972.post-86893767769092211902008-03-16T17:12:00.000-04:002008-03-16T17:12:00.000-04:00@nirav - i thought you will be the one who wud get...@nirav - i thought you will be the one who wud get it from the start.Neohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881907285598583838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034972.post-6730090964537618122008-03-16T16:12:00.000-04:002008-03-16T16:12:00.000-04:00HeheheheFrom the first para, I knew this was so ki...Hehehehe<BR/><BR/>From the first para, I knew this was so kinda joke, but I was expecting the "virus" to be a smiley.<BR/><BR/>What you had was even better ;-)<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/>NiravNiravhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04848561844975409918noreply@blogger.com
