nice posts, I just wish that mbc can learn how to better separate their paragraphs.  they are hard to read, especially numbered ones like that.

When someone used to tell me they had this OS I immediately told them to buy another OS if they wanted me to work on it. I still can't believe they released that pos.

I contest 10. A Microsoft Linux would have brought even more anti-trust attention down on the corporation's head. Also, this list failed to recall Microsoft's infamous old "nobody will ever need more than x number of RAM" sentiments.

No. 1 embarassment was indeed Me. I seem to recall somewhere that the Chief Designer of Me (NOT Billy) went on record and said that Me was released with 50 thousand KNOWN bugs......

No 2 embarassment was the unforgetable moment when Win98 had a BSOD moment during its unveiling
