Users helping users fix problems, ha imagine that..

I mean how the hell can Microsoft think there are so many people pirating
their damn OS when it fricken comes preinstalled on everything?

Oh we can't provide you a REAL CD cause you might pirate the OS? Who comes
up with this logic? What, hard drives never fail? Nobody ever reinstalls to
fix a problem?

You know what I think, I think Microsoft needs to be rebooted because
something is seriously fucked up over there.
