The biggest Blue Screen of Death ever

,----[ Quote ]
| Why? Because, according to the Morning Herald, both the Beijing Olympics 
| committee and Lenovo, a major backer of the games, had deliberately chosen to 
| run XP operating system on the games' PC because they didn't trust Vista. 
| Turns out they shouldn't have trusted XP either, but they should have known 
| that. Best of all, Lenovo chairman, Yang Yuanqing, said Lenovo had chosen not 
| to use Vista because, "If it's not stable, it could have some problems."     
| 
| So, next time you go to an online PC sales Web site and you see that line 
| about "We recommend Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium," just remember: 
| They're lying.

This "recommends" thing should be illegalised. It's false advertising. It's
paid for. It's misleading and corrupt.
