* THE 12 STEPS OF MICROSOFT WINDOWS *

[Guest anon2@anon.com]

* THE 12 STEPS OF MICROSOFT WINDOWS *

 

1. We admitted we were powerless over Microsoft and that our lives had

become unmanageable from using Windows.

 

2. Came to believe that a powerful operating system greater than

Windows could restore us to sanity.

 

3. Made a decision to turn our computers and our operating system over

to the care of Linux, OS/2, or Macintosh as we understood which works

best.

 

4. Made a searching and fearless inventory of our hard drives, and

deleted all Microsoft files.

 

5. Admitted to Microsoft Customer Service, to ourselves and to other

computer users the exact nature of Windows faults.

 

6. Were entirely ready to have the Format Command remove all these

defective Microsoft files.

 

7. Humbly asked the County Sanitation Department to remove our Windows

Install CD.

 

8. Made a list of all personal files on our hard drive which had been

harmed, and became willing to make repairs to them if at all possible.

 

9. Made direct amends to all people who received virus infections from

our emails as a result of Outlook Express, wherever possible, except

when to do so would further injure them or their computers.

 

10. Continued to take inventory of personal files and when they were

corrupt, we promptly deleted them.

 

11. Sought the book "The Dummies Guide to Computers", and through

reading and learning, we sought to improve our conscious contact with

our computers, as we understood them, searching only for knowledge of

another operating system, and hoping we have the CPU power and Memory

to install it.

 

12. Having had a technological awakening as the result of these steps,

we tried to carry this message to other computer users, and to refuse

to use Microsoft software in all our affairs.

 

 

*Side note:

For those into 13 stepping.....

 

13. Using our newly installed powerful operating system, we went

online to search for the latest porn photos and promptly downloaded

them.

That's almost sacrilegious to the ones the "real" 12 steps saved from death.
