Lemmon Laws

I paid for 3.11, several copies of 95’, several copies of 98’, 98’SE, and ME.
And all I got was disappointment, and false promises.
Now if you bought a car that worked about as well as previous versions of Windows did, then you are entitled to a new car in replacement. Or a complete refund.
M$ refuses to do either.
Instead, they patch the old one up until Hell won't have it. But it still won't work.
So after spending nearly a thousand dollars for failed OS's, I felt that XP was the replacement I deserved.
M$ promised me an operating system, but sold me crap.
And fixing it didn't work.
So my justification for using a free "Corp" copy is that by now I've given M$ way more than it’s OS is worth, and it's time they gave me what they promised me in the first place.
An Operating System that actually works.
I just can't imagine how they've gotten away with breaking the Lemmon Law for so long, without some high priced Lawyer taking them to court over it.

Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on

Fool me once, shame on me.

Fool me twice, shame on you.

1. If you find it so inadequate, why have you purchased it so many times?

Obviously for the same reason as the rest of us -- you and me and nobody has written as good a product yet.

2. Since when is suseptibility to vandalism a product defect?

SP2 contains fixes to make the product more vandal resistant.

If you were waiting for Ford or GM to do a recall to install vandal-proof features on their vehicles you would be laughed at.

But asking nerds to fix your vandalism problems for free -- that is something you can con them into.
