Then you're retarded too, or you want us to believe that all the Oseco
employees, and the millions and millions of Windows users, use Windows
only to play games. Actually, so far, you're the only one that is so
pathetic that you feel the need to play games both at home and at
work... Perhaps you should get a wife for home, and actually do your
job while at work...

The tools are there and ARE easy to use. Are they GUI? No, but so
what? CHKDSK.EXE has been around for as long as I can remember, I think
harking all the way back to Dos 3.x. The fact that you don't know it,
isn't a problem, but the fact that you keep blaming MS for this is just
plain silly.
