Does the Queen run XP Home or XP Pro?

Billy Gates is keeping pretty good company. He received an honorary knighthood from the Queen of England. He will join the ranks of such notables as Reverend Billy Graham, former President George Herbert Bush, Steven Spielberg and former New York Mayor Rudi Giuliani. Wonder if she keeps track of the crown jewels with Microsoft Excel or Access? Is she an IE or Firefox person? My money says Firefox. Read about it at BBC News.

The jerks at iDownload have been told to kiss off by at least one web entity that received a cease and desist notice that specified they did not want to be called spyware. Hey, iDownload you are not only spyware, but malware, dungware and a bunch of goobers that need to be thrown off the planet. What's next? Will we legalize Nazism? Bring back witch burning? The fact that spyware cretins exist as businesses is a horror! Read about it at CastleCops.

Two phone calls have been received this morning and the day is growing longer. Must go find my casual suit and wear it. Peace out.
