Microsoft Announces a Major Corporate Diversification
Into the Car Making Business.
The major design criteria are:
Economies in interior design are based upon uniform size back-sides
seats are all the same size and standard distance from the steering wheel.
The cars will only run on Microsoft petrol (Microsoft LP Gas will be
announced soon ..)
The oil, alternator, low-fuel and engine management system warning

pressure to upgrade (modestly priced "upgrade" kits will be available
either dealer fitted or self install). Support for self install is
an extra cost option, cost based upon the number of calls and the
number of callers.

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7. 0 to Wife 1. 0 and noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources. No mention of this phenomenon was included in the product brochure. In addition, Wife 1. 0 installs itself into all other programs and launches during system initialization, where it monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Hang out with the Guys Night 10. 3, Multiple Sports Nights 2. 5 and Saturday Football 5. 0 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected. I cannot seem to keep Wife 1. 0 in the background while attempting to run some of my other favorite applications. I am thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7. 0, but uninstall does not work on this program. Can you help me, please!!! Thanks, Joe--------------------------Dear Joe: This is a very common problem that men complain about but it is mostly due to a primary more...
