The best we could come up with was a walla article quoting a death threat jokingly made by Doron, and attributing it to digitas. Still, we do have *a* PR forum (loosly speaking hosted by Hamakor). You can contact it at pr at hamakor org il.

Just a couple of examples: I especially like the four games it comes with - Hearts, FreeCell (so addictive!), Minesweeper, and Solitaire. It's easy to see why XP is considered the ultimate platform for gamers. with Windows XP I don't gotta worry about emailing viruses to my friends and family at all. The built-in email client Outlook Express does it automatically, in the background. With Windows XP Home, I have the peace of mind that comes with knowing my habits and activities are being monitored by Microsoft, and my computer's hardware configuration and list of installed software is being stored in a database in Redmond. Windows Longhorn will be like having a little cop right inside your computer, something MCSEs such as myself have been demanding for years.
