Microsoft sucks

That’s S-U-X-X-X-X-X.

For the first time today I have control of my computer. Control being a temporary matter, given recent history.

Every day for the past few months of days a message has flashed on my screen telling me I need to join millions of others and download Windows 10. For free. For a limited time only.

Every day I click “Nope” or whatever the decline choice is. Every day.

So this morning – about 30 minutes ago – I opened the lid and found a blue screen and the message “WELCOME TO WINDOWS 10!”

The screen gave me two choices: NEXT and I AM NOT BOB MERRIMAN.

I selected the OFF button. After a few seconds, I powered up.

Look! It’s the same blue screen as before! Who would have thought Microsoft was so tenacious?

This time I selected I AM NOT BOB MERRIMAN. A new message appeared, saying that if I declined to accept Windows 10, I would lose a great opportunity to …

I clicked DECLINE.

And waited 7-10 minutes for Microsoft to RESTORE PREVIOUS WINDOWS VERSION.

So, if I read that right, Microsoft removed my previous version and added – without permission – Version 10, which I have declined every day for six months.

Eat ****, Bill Gates. Take your tens of billions of dollars and ….

Come on, Bob. If Bill Gates went up the mountain, he would come down with the belief he had reprogrammed G-d.
