Microsoft is lost. I bet they don't use any NT4 or W2K internally anymore which
would explain why vista requires a registry edit to turn on NTLM so it can do
file sharing with older windows systems instead of the troubleshooting wizard
offering to fix it easily.

These people are so out of touch with the realities of the computing world that
I honestly don't hold much hope for them, they're on the way out. Mark my
words, barring a complete turnaround of that company their marketshare is going
nowhere but down.
