what would you do with bill gates?

philippe · May 16, 2002, 12:51 PM

choose....
i hate him.
windows ME just is crap.

Ohwell · May 16, 2002, 01:23 PM

I'd force him to use Windoze ME!

Naa I am a little too cruel.

Graeme the mad · May 16, 2002, 03:05 PM

This isn't even vaguely amusing - and thats by my very, very, very, exceptionally low standards of what classes as funny.

Who the hades did you think did the earlier windows operating systems, and how about windows Xp?

I suppose you've never made a mistake.

The darkshade way??? is that arse-rape or something???

muppet · May 21, 2002, 05:18 AM

Outfit a plane's computer with dual boot capability.
Stick him on that plane.
Fly it real high near a big rocky mountain range.
Reboot the plane's computer.
Choose to reboot in Windows ME.

Wait for crash.

No, it is nothing so puerile and silly. But it is a form of death that goes far beyond the comprehension of mere mortals. Two words:

But wheres the option to say these threads are crap?

other

Beam · May 21, 2002, 02:06 PM

Voted to give him the "simon darkshade way". Specially with either the arse rape or the Engelbert H. option.

The other ones are basically a waste of resources.

He Phillipe, find yourself a toilet and flush ME. 98 will do the job for you!

philippe · May 21, 2002, 02:11 PM

and what about xp?
so i have ME and i want to change it without installing all my programs again(some programs of me can be only installed once)

Beam · May 21, 2002, 02:33 PM

XP might be your only option since as far as I know MS hardly does support backward compatibility for OS. I recommend you check some posts in the Tech Support area for Civ III impact. What are the other programs you mention?

philippe · May 21, 2002, 02:39 PM

some games can only be installed once (protection vs piracy)

Beam · May 21, 2002, 02:41 PM

Glad you respect that. But when you go from scratch you should be able to reinstall if you have the CD's or am I wrong here?

Edit for typos.

philippe · May 21, 2002, 02:54 PM

i dont think so..i once installed a game twice and it didnt work anymore(piracy protection)

Thunderfall · May 21, 2002, 03:09 PM

wow! I am surprised so many people love Bill Gates.

Little theory: we are all stuck with Windows whatever and fear Billies lawyers because secretly they are reading all gates/windows related posts.

Am I getting paranoid now?

These are games? What happens if you don't have enough hard drive space so that you need to uninstall a game? I have never seen a game that cannot be installed twice, apart from demos on the same computer.

allhailIndia · May 22, 2002, 01:56 AM

Hey Phillipe, you forgot the American option.

Blow his brains out, sue his wife for 53.2billions and then get his kids hooked on drugs.[smoke]

For all the trouble you caused me with Civ3, this is too nice.
