content: I still remember the first time in my life that I got the Microshaft. The year was 1998, and a "fast" processor ran at a blazing 350 MHz. There was a problem with Windows 95 though, which would cause it to fail to boot if the CPU was faster than 300 MHz or so. Microshaft published a patch for this, but in an attempt to waste the time and empty the wallet of the consumer, the patch needed to be installed from a running Windows environment. That's right, if you tried to run the patch .exe from DOS, it would tell you that it must be run from Windows, when the fucking problem was that Windows would not start, not even in the limited modes. So, what did this patch actually do? It was a self-extracting archive that would update some core Windows files with new versions; no technical reason it couldn't work from DOS. So, what did I do? I extracted the files from the patch on a different Windows machine, and then I manually copied them over on the affected one. Something that should have taken 10 seconds ended up taking 10 minutes. I've disliked this company ever since.
