I fixed that on part mine. To that response I said,
"Now listen vairy carefully, for I shall zay zees only wance;
I--DON'T--HAVE--ANY--MICROSOFT--CRAP! And I don't have a problem with
my TCP/IP stack. I just want answers to simple questions."
Now, if I ring help desk, after they ask me my login name, I hear
their kb clatter, then a not quite suppressed chuckle, or sometimes a
giggle. I have no idea what note they have put on my account screen,
but it stops them mentioning Windoze and it stops them patronising me.
It's probably something like, "Do not mention any Microsoft product to
this grumpy old bastard." Whatever it is, it works.
Regards
