Amen brother! I certainly DO NOT look forward the scenario of being in a
hospital, hooked up to a bunch of monitors and what not and hearing the staff
say "uh oh" as the "powered by MS" equipment gives them a BSOD (blue screen of
death). I don't want my demise to be brought about by a BSOD.

On a slightly different line of inquiry, in a world (digital or otherwise)
controlled by MS - has anyone looked for "666" embedded anywhere in MS
products? [Just kidding, I don't think a computer running MS stuff really is
"the beast".]
