Plans have been set in motion to conquer and absorb you, but until then, you may continue to believe that USA is a nation rather than a puppet. I can't tell you about the schedule, though; if I did, I'd have to kill you. I can tell you this: our vision includes software factories modeled on the textile trades. You will be chained to your desk and paid as much as garment sewers. (Hmmm, interesting homonym there :) A.

See http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=aef6aa76-ab88-4 264-87b4-8e946ef584d7&DisplayLang=en. What's funny is the page you are taken to next. It's a form which is: A) quite ambiguous - should you fill it in if downloading? Or only if ordering the CD? B) the country dropdown contains only one country (USA), but the state/province dropdown contains Canadian provinces. C) I entered several valid postal codes, but on each received the error message "not a valid zip code". Yet the label says "Zip/Postal Code". D) Nothing happens when you click Submit. Nice piece of work, guys and gals!
