Wait, out there in the distance...what do I see coming this way? It looks like a herd of them, stampeding...I can almost make them out...they are getting closer...wait...wait...wait...
Oh, it's just the usual M$ astroturfers and apologists. We've seen their act before. |

Except that this flaw goes back to Windows versions prior to 2000... good thinking, though. |
