They tried to convince us that it would work for a PC and millions of people
believed it.

Now they think: "if THAT worked, we can make them believe that Windows is a must
for SOSes (Suppository Operating Systems)".

I'm confident they are right and people will buy that too. Pharmaceutical labs
will have to write a Windows driver and get certification (blessing) from
Microsoft. Then we will have to pray that the APM BIOS is not too buggy
(suspend/resume/eject MUST work!)

I'm letting Chess Tiger X run on this position for a while, if I get something
I'll post. If I don't post, that means I did not get anything interesting... :)
