Or they'll "get the boot" if they don't start working.
lol I've never used Vista myself (skipped straight from XP to 7) but, based on what I've heard from those who have, I'd say it was a big misstep for Microsoft; I don't know one person who liked it.
No one likes their head banged against a brick wall.
Windows itself,..or maybe I should say the company MicroSoft, is a dastardly company to begin with.
I have to give a good example of why I say this about MicroSoft. Do you recall maybe 10 years ago, there was the dreaded Blaster Worm going around, a Virus or Trojan Horse that if you had that in your computer, you would play hell getting rid of it, and it would play hell with your hard drive, and programs kicking you off the internet and all sorts of bad things. So...you get all the security updates for your window's system....but even as MicroSoft knew about the Blaster Worm (and a few thousand variety Viruses based upon the same Blaster Worm program) and what did MicroSoft do to help everyone avoid this problem? Nothing. They would only sell you a "tool" (Norton or another source) for removal. Now if you paid for your Norton, the removal tool for Blaster Worm was another $30.00 expense....so what this means to me? I personally think the Blaster Worm was made by MicroSoft....they allowed it to spread to all computers around the world...that way they get to sell you the removal tool...for $30.00 nice way to earn some extra money for them.
I did learn from all that way back then....Norton is not a nice anti virus program. When it puts a file in the virus vault, you never see that file again....but it also locks up all the "fringe" parts of the program that one file was attached to and after a while...your computer has "running" issues as eventually the running programs are all locked up.....and unless you are a master programmer....good luck restoring those files in your registers and removing the virus one file at a time....Avast is now our choice of Anti-Virus software. Malware Bytes is also a good free program that finds those nasty things people want to sneak into your computer....

For most of us, you are correct....but you are aware there are some folks that LOVE banging their noggings on anything hard...and crave that brick wall.

I'd settle for Honeymooners re-runs, but nobody is even showing those anymore.

Not unless you have it on DVD.
I ran through the series twice, and have the "lost episodes" edition.
Sadly the last several episodes were of them traveling around the world.
A sign that the series was coming to an end.
From one of my favorite episodes....

As I understand it, you need both the Lost Episodes edition and the Classic 39 Episodes edition if you want everything that still exists.
