It's worse. I was talking to a lady who actually paid
for Orifice 2007. She was supposed to load it on all
her three computers. She was most disappointed when
she found Orifice 2007 will only run on Window$ Vi$ta
operating system.
You can't just upgrade your word processor, you have
to upgrade your OS, and if your computer is a little
old, you have to buy a new one.
People are starting to see why I don't like Bill Gates
and Micro$oft!
