Re: XP: Cool feature with a weakness

An "XP machine" needn't contain a video card that can "change the
orientation of the computer screen image" to be considered an ""XP
machine".

Has *anyone* disagreed with this? Anyone at all? Before you lie and claim
I have, Steve, let me remind you that I have not.

So, Steve, why do you spew such obvious BS, other than the simple facts
that:

A) You had no real comment in relation to my point about how a
non-admin user in XP can screw with other users.
B) You *want* to show of how consumed by your hatred you are.

The feature you described is not "part of the experience of using an XP
machine" unless that machine has video circuitry which supports that
feature via a keyboard command, therefore, your title is incorrect (as
is your argument)... this is not a "Cool feature" of XP. The same
feature would likely be available in Vista or any other OS on that same
machine as long as it allows access via a keyboard command.

Ah, so you just wanted to nit pick, miss the point, and show off your
irrational and all consuming hatred. OK. Thanks for sharing.

Next time, Steve, why don't you try to contribute something of value to
CSMA. Please.


Here: I will give you another change. Do you have any thoughts on the fact
that, at least in the case I described, a non-Admin user can alter settings
for other users?
