Since moving away from windows, I can't say I miss it. My desktop at home had a problem with the updated driver for my soundcard.
I thought at first there was something on my system causing the problem, so it was formatted and clean installed, and the update applied first thing, same problem.
What would ultimately happen would be during the soundcard install, the computer would lock up hard, forcing me to hit the reset button. Upon rebooting, I had no sound, and no optical drives. Even system restore in safe mode couldn't fix the problem.

RE: But Did It Really Succeed?
God I hope I never have to work for someone like that. Just out of curiosity though, why would you be checking new for a return value of NULL? If new fails to allocate memory, it throws an exception doesn't it?

RE: Microsoft and Piracy
They detected you are running linux,
They are suggesting you download windows xp and install that
They'll invoice you later ;-)
