Interesting read. I was surprised they are still using XP though.

If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

lol, iTwats.
Also, read thread title as IIS rather than ISS, made for a very confusing few moments.

Mac is a nice machine. It's the people that are just too much for me.

Yeah I must admit, this "cult of mac" shit is redick.
I'm a total convert with Mac, speaking solely about the laptop market. Not a fan of this OS on the desktop or phone.
