You definitely don't know where that **** has been. Not to mention it is a bad idea in any case as stated above. And it is immoral.

The probability of that ending well is slim to none, unless you are about to put in your 2 weeks' notice.

Scott Adams Blog: I Hope My Father Dies Soon 11/23/2013

Pretty plain stance on the subject. My wife & I watch my mom in a home with late stage Alzheimer's and wonder when does common sense prevail and realize there's a whole industry out there setup to take the last few dollars out of someone before they go.

Also, just to change the subject a bit... Interesting read on how the early PC operating system wars came to be (or at least post CP/M for those who were around then....).

******* ****-witted fuckstains!

I finally got off my **** and started exploring the New York Public Library mid-Manhattan branch, and it turns out that even THEY use the ******* Dewey-decimal system. What the **** is it with public libraries everywhere that makes them so resistant to the concept the the Library of Congress numbering system? It's so much more ******* logical...

Dewey Decimal is the ******* QWERTY of organizational systems...

I think the "immoral" comment was mostly made in jest. The majority of the "Nay" votes seem to be concerned with the social aftermath of messing around with coworkers, especially in a very unorthodox set of circumstances.

It seems like there is much more potential downside than upside with the probability skewed for short-term success with intermediate to long-term failure.

If this was an investment opportunity, I would pass.

Then again, YOLO.

Half an operating system: The triumph and tragedy of OS/2 | Ars Technica
There's an interesting line on page 3: "Microsoft also aggressively courted the clone manufacturers with incredibly attractive bundling deals, putting Windows 3 on most new computers sold."

The incredibly attractive bundling deals resembled extortion from some perspectives. Basically, they gave Windows licenses away for nearly free to PC manufacturers on the condition that they didn't sell ANY machines with ANY other operating systems. If a manufacturer offered OS/2 as an option then they were forced to pay a ridiculously high license price for every Windows machine they sold. I don't remember the dollar amount, but it was something like $200. That meant that a manufacturer had to increase the selling price of every Windows computer just for offering an option to Windows.

Obviously, nobody offered any options. There were no machines available with OS/2 or Linux installed. If you wanted to run anything other than Windows, then you needed to buy a machine with Windows installed and reformat the the HD. Or build a box from scratch.

It was that kind of behavior that led me to despise Microsoft and Bill Gates. Fortunately, things have improved with MS since Gates left the company. It'll be interesting to see what happens to Apple without Jobs.

I'd also buy a MazdaSpeed 3 if I could find one that didn't include free RAPE
