I switched our entire office over to mac cause pc's are so fuckin insecure and shitty.

We have one lone pc in the office. It's not connected to a network. It has nothing on it except for a base install of xp pro, visual studio 6, and installshield pro. The only purpose it serves is to act as a place to put software installations together.

It suddenly wouldnt get past a login screen. So i took a deep breath.
I tried the xp recovery disk we so consciously made when installing this system.
I tried to do the automated system recovery. nothing.
We finally gave in and decided to install xp from scratch on the machine. It got to the "accept this license" page. We hit f8 to accept the license. It wont let us accept the license. But it begins speaking french.

Needless to say.... there is a mess of parts in our office now. I threw it against the wall. I kicked it til little pieces of plastic were shattering on the wall. I dont think i've ever lost my cool like that with anything or anyone in my life. In any case. My toe hurts.

My name is Hooper. And i switched because i'm sick of fuckin piece of shit motherfuckin cocksucking goddamned worhtless infected crapola pcs.

How can a computer be "insecure"?

:D

Good luck, hope you dont have any files in pc format that
you need to read on a mac, or visa versa.

Be sure to get a good sys admin to setup your workstations. An improperly configured OS X system is MANY times more insecure than a PC.
