    I noticed you getting picked on... but to throw in another... hydrogen and oxygen arent chemicals, they are elements which can then make up a chemical if combined with something, thats what makes it chemistry... i know you didnt state the quote, but you copied it as so... which is about the same as standing behind it.

    just a noticable thing i seen is all
    It's funny, I've been tempted to change the quote, but then it's a quote, so that's not kosher. I'm a chemical engineer, so I know that H and O are elements, but, like i said above, I like my beer, to the quote still wins.

    Microsoft said in December 2007 that it was seeing Windows Vista pirated at only half the rate of Windows XP.

    There's a joke in there that needs to be made.
    ha ha, i found that pretty funny as well as this:

    With the first service pack to Vista, Microsoft made the software significantly more usable to those whose versions of Windows are determined not to be genuine.

    oh great.... this is exactly what i was hoping not to read... just for the simple fact that this is taking focus off the OS itself now... a huge de ja vu from Longhorn days
    Which is kind of a shame, because really the focus should be about 7.

    I am a former XP only user. Ran an early beta of 7 liked it but wanted to wait. So went back to XP and to a we will see approach. Now that the RC is here, I installed it, and I did something I typically do not do. I took a leap of faith and completely wiped my stable, solid, configured and trusted install of XP.

    After the initial install, which was a breeze i must say. I began to get a little overwhelmed, not being a vista user the transition was a little bit of a shock. I began to think, oh crap what did I do, why did I wipe my xp install.

    Here I am a few days later, and I'm completely thrilled with what I feel is an XP replacement for good. It took awhile for navigation to make full sense, but i'm loving the added features, the ease of use. It took a few tweaks to get it where I wanted it, but I love it. And with that it is the features I love they should be touting.

    As you way, the focus is removed from the operating system and that is a shame as it is a deserving system with many features the average gamer and user like me will enjoy and use on a daily basis.

    Wth. 'Chemicals' is not the correct term to use for either elements or compounds on its own. It is used as in 'chemical element' or 'chemical compounds' and also as the generic 'Chemicals', but it isn't specific to either.
