Microsoft’s ‘new’ operating system: Mojave

Cnet’s Ina Fried found out about a recent trip that Microsoft made to San Francisco, rounding up Windows XP users who had negative impressions of Vista. The subjects were put on video, asked about their Vista impressions, and then shown a “new” operating system, code-named Mojave. More than 90 percent gave positive feedback on what they saw. Then they were told that “Mojave” was actually Windows Vista.

I don’t have a direct link to this, it came in a news letter that i get from HelpWithWindows. The psychology is interesting because there has been so many negative reviews/comments/blog posts about Vista. I’m using it right now. I like it. I’m not a Microsoft fan, but Vista is easier to navigate, manages files much better, has more built in features and functionality and is more stable then XP. It does need more RAM to opreate at its best and could a couple tweaks, but nothing that really bothers me. And I like the looks of it. Propably like many of the people that read this blog I use a computer a lot. To finally have some of the user friendly looks and overall experience that MACs have makes that time on the keyboard a little more enjoyable.

Some elementary logic:

John McCain is a Republican.

Oklahoma City bombers Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were Republicans.

Thus John McCain supports domestic right-wing terrorism.

How about this, John McCain claims to be a Christian. In fact he claims to be a Episcopalian and a Baptist.

Oklahoma City bombers Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were Christians.

Thus John McCain supports right-wing Christian domestic terrorism.

John McCain was in the military.

Oklahoma City bombers Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were both in the military.

Thus John McCain is a co-conspirator of the worse right-wing extremists and supports members of the military committing acts of terror.

I suspect that my logic is a little off. Most Republicans do not com mitt acts of domestic terrorism. Neither do the vast majority of Christians in America. Few veteran or active duty military would even think of blowing up an office building. The problem is that the Right doesn’t mind, has no conscience about using that kind of twisted logic to attack Senator Obama. Obama Responds To Swift Boat Attack While McCain Violates Previous Vow To Condemn Such Attacks They’re trying to connect Obama in the public’s mind with former radical Bill Ayers ( who committed his crimes when Obama was eight years old). Obama worked on an anti-poverty project that also included Ayers and some Republicans. In other words if one of your co-workers, a family friend or even a neighbor once molested a child you’re also guilty of child molesting by reason of your proximity. Some right-wing sites are screaming censorship because Obama is trying to stop the ads by this group of radical wingers. Sorry, but the Constitutional has said from day one libel and slander are not covered under free speech. These 527 groups are also not supposed to run ads that push specific votes, only to express views about issues. Good case here that the ads run by the American Issues Project are illegal.

John McCain bets the farm that women aren’t listening – Hillary Clinton supporters and moderate Republican women in particular.
