Wonderful article.  Thanks for posting it, and I agree with almost everything on there.  The worst part is that these people prey on the users who just want to click a button and see porn, the ones that are too busy trying to be cool and entertained to actually figure out how things work.  Or, the poor grandma who just wants to email her grandkids back and forth and really can;t figure out how it works through no fault of her own.

Norton was the best.  Quicktime, haven't used it for years.  Realplayer?  People still use that? JAVA is useful, and Outlook 2007 is fairly nice, although it took a long time to get here.  Flash web sites, that is a BIG pet peeve of mine.  Windows update I don't agree with at all.  Worried about Genuine Advantage?  GET LEGAL.  It hurts nothing and reveals nothing if you are running a legal copy of Windows.  Windows Update works, period, probably one of the few things they have done right.  MS hater or no, it does have it's advantages.

An phrase short for "Okay, thanks" that originated somewhere on the internet a really long time ago. A snarky, quick dismissal. The word today is now old and unfunny, and everybody who still uses it should be lined up and shot. -Urban Dictionary

When we were youngsters back in the beginning of the seventys, and had to learn German, we constructed a language mixture of various Danish dialects, Norwegian, Swedish, English and German. It became our internal code language that only a few could understand. And it was great fun, yeah, it really was great fun - for a while. So I do understand how lolcode can be popular, if "lolcode" even is a accepted name for this new  dead  language (no-one speaks it). However, I am not sure I ever will bother to learn it myself. But thanks for the enlightment!
