Point is, XP users generally love their systems because it's easy. Installing software is easy. They put a disk in and it does the rest. They just need to hit "next" a few times.
And then hit Ctrl-Alt-Del a few times. And then hit reset a few times - and then watch in horror as the entire plot spirals towards the ground with immense orange flames pouring from all engines ... any parachutes? No, bad luck ... the friendly XP adware and spyware that infects such systems within minutes of take off probably nicked them for the silk. Back up at 30,000 feet I turn the methanol injection back off, throttle down and turn for home to load up some more belts of .50 calibre. All penguins return to base, re-arm and re-fuel ...
Hehehe! You've got it all wrong Fergus, that's the beauty of XP. As Linus said, he was going to build crash features into Linux, but a Redmond company owns the patents. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer =====LINUX ONLY USED HERE=====
