Your unnecessary spin doctoring and constant FUD posts are NOT constructive. Why do you waste your time and the time of those who read this thread with your negative posts? Why don't you stop wasting everyone's valuable time and do something constructive? Maybe you can volunteer at a homeless shelter? You could donate your time to a hospital? Maybe you could spend your time helping MSFT build programs and operating systems that don't crash or help them fix those that do? Maybe you could go to North Korea and stop the drought and famine? You could help build dams in China to stop the flooding? You could go to the middle east and have a hunger strike for peace? What a useless waste!
