ONE A married couple were asleep when the phone rang in the morning.The wife (undoubtedly blonde), picked up the phone, listened a moment and said, how should I know, that's 200 miles from here!" and hung up. The husband said, "Who was that?" The wife said, "I don't know; some woman wanting to know 'if the coast is clear." TWO Two blondes are walking down the street. One notices a compact on the sidewalk and leans down to pick it up. She opens it, looks in the mirror and says, "Hmm, this person looks familiar." the second blonde says, "Here, let me see!" So the first blonde hands her the compact. The second one looks in the mirror and says, "You dummy, it's me!" THREE A blonde suspects her boyfriend of cheating on her, so she goes out and buys a gun. She goes to his apartment unexpectedly and when she opens the door she finds him in the arms of a redhead. Well, the blonde is really angry. she opens her purse to take out the gun, and as she does so, she is overcome with grief. She takes the gun and puts it to her head. The boyfriend yells, "No, honey, don't do it" The blonde replies, "Shut up, you're next!" FOUR A blonde was bragging about her knowledge of state capitals. She proudly says, "Go ahead, ask me, I know all of them." A friend says, OK, what's the capital of Wisconsin?" The blonde replies, "Oh, that's easy: W." FIVE What did the blonde ask her doctor when he told her she was pregnant? "Is it mine?" SIX A blonde had just totaled her car in a horrific accident. Miraculously, she managed to pry herself from the wreckage without a scratch and was applying fresh lipstick when the state trooper arrived. "My Goodness!" the trooper exclaimed "Your car looks like an accordion that was stomped on by an elephant. Are you OK ma'am?" Yes, officer, I'm just fine" the blonde chirped. Well, how in the world did this happen?" the officer asked as he surveyed the wrecked car. "Officer, it was the strangest thing!" the blonde began. "I was driving along this road when from out of nowhere this TREE pops up in front of me. So I swerved to the right, and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was ANOTHER tree! I swerved to the right and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was.... "Uh, ma'am," the officer said, cutting her off, "There isn't a tree on this road for 30 miles. That was your air freshener swinging back and forth." SEVEN Returning home from work, a blonde was shocked to find her house ransacked and burglarized. She telephoned the police at once and reported the crime. The police dispatcher broadcast the call on the channels, and a K-9 unit patrolling nearby was the first to respond. As the K-9 officer approached the house with his dog on a leash, the blonde ran out on the porch, shuddered at the sight of the cop and his dog, then sat down on the steps. Putting her face in her hands, she moaned, "I come home to find all my possessions stolen. I call the police for help and what do they do? They send me a BLIND policeman!" EIGHT A blonde was driving home and got caught in a really bad hailstorm. Her car was covered with dents, so the next day she took it to the repair shop. The shop owner saw that she was a blonde and decided to have some fun. He told her just to go home and blow into the tail pipe really hard and all the dents would pop out. The blonde went home, got down on her hands and knees and started blowing into her tail pipe. Nothing happened. She blew a little harder and still nothing happened. Her roommate, also a blonde, came home and said, "What are you doing?" The blonde told her how the repairman had instructed her to blow into the tailpipe in order to get all the dents to pop out. Her blonde roommate rolled her eyes and said, "Hell-oooo! You need to roll up the windows first!"

sounds like alot of hassle to go to, to play a game.

A white guy is walking along a beach when he comes across a lamp partially buried in the sand. He picks up the lamp and gives it a rub. Two blonde genies appear and they tell him he has been granted three wishes. The guy makes his three wishes and the blonde genies disappear. The next thing the guy knows, he's in a bedroom, in a mansion, surround by 50 beautiful women. He makes love to all of them and begins to explore the house. Suddenly he feels something soft under his feet, he looks down and the floor is covered in $100 bills. Then, there is a knock at the door. He answers the door and standing there are two people dressed in Klu Klux Klan outfits. They drag him outside to the nearest tree, throw a rope over a limb and hang him by the neck until he is dead. The Klansmen walk off. As they are walking away, they remove their hoods - it's the two blonde genies. One blonde genie says to the other one "Hey, I can understand the first wish having all these beautiful women in a big mansion to mak e love to. I can also understand him wanting to be a millionaire. But to be hung like a black man is beyond me"

Very nice, love the tech specs.

Hi MSNwar, I am not sure what you mean by: I can't help but think that if someone just bought WinXP for $100 plus that they would balk at the product activation and toss the product. Bottom line is $100 plus. Keyword is Mandatory. Could you please clarify this? Windows XP has been the biggest selling OS of all time just check out the stories below: Microsoft Windows XP Sales Exceed 17 Million Copies Just Over Two Months After Worldwide Debut http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/Press/2...mentumCESPR.asp Microsoft: Early Windows XP sales top 95, ME http://www.itworld.com/Comp/4063/IDG011108XPsales/ I have no statistical information at hand that I could locate before putting up this post but they where just some random sites I have located that may give some kind of an indication of the popularity of the product. Thank-you for your comments, I generally get time to myself at work and like to read about Microsoft technologies it is I guess a hobby of mine but also is something I do because it relates to my line of work. And thank-you again.

You made total sense. Licensing + Marketing = Microsoft Microsoft do see that the home user fits in to that equation just look at the Media Centre, as Bill said: "This newest member of the Windows XP family enables consumers to enjoy the best of what digital entertainment has to offer and takes us into an exciting new era of personal computing," Story here: http://www.itnews.com.au/storycontent.cfm?...17&Art_ID=11145

Should have posted this here Windows "Longhorn" Server Cancelled 11/11/2002 — Microsoft Corp. abandoned its plans to ship client and server versions of Windows simultaneously in the "Longhorn" release, a company spokeswoman confirmed Monday. Instead, "Longhorn" will be a client-only release, with the successor to Windows .NET Server 2003 coming later under the code-name "Blackcomb." Longhorn had been the version of Windows scheduled to come out after Windows XP on the client side and after Windows .NET Server 2003 on the server side. Some Microsoft officials' original comments when the company first injected the Longhorn project into the product roadmap a few years ago suggested it would be an interim release and primarily a client-only operating system. Longhorn grew into a major overhaul of both client and server operating systems. Now, Microsoft is back to the client-only part.

I am looking forward to the broadbench display's I think the game play would be so cool and it would be like a home IMAX Cinema. I would probably use a Tablet PC as my dock machine. Story here: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/885...crosoft26.shtml

Thank-you, I was rushing to leave work.

Microsoft Corp. (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people) said on Monday that display maker ViewSonic Corp. will start selling a portable flat-panel screen that can be taken off the desk and used to operate a computer via a wireless link. The Smart Display is software giant Microsoft's latest bid to let people access their computers without being tied to a desk, following the release last week of the Tablet PC.

I think what this guy needs to realise is Microsoft talk in quaters so it will probably be *in theory* Windows.NET 2004 . I do not know what they will call it the reason why they made it XP was purely to stop puting a date on the OS like Windows 95-2000. The aim of Microsoft currently is to create a product "windows" and give it a name specific to it so if anyone even comes close like "lindows" they can sue the pants off them. They want a trademark that is easy to identify in the marketing audience which currently is a very basic user. Even looking at the idea of calling their Operating System a Media Centre makes sense to me however they have already coined that phrase elsewhere.
