It blends. What else could one want for their 2gb of RAM?

Ah, then you have experienced the WOW! of Windows Vista in all its full-blown
glory. Can you right a succinct paragraph or two explaining how it all felt,
refraining from any language that might offend young ears or people of strong
religious persuasion? ... Ben Myers

You're very creative Ben and maybe someone has done this already, but
what worlds would you use if W.O.W. were an acronym?

I was thinking "Where's the Beef" but that would be W.T.B. so it
doesn't work :-) Although W.T.B. is close to WTF, which accurately
communicates my sentiments!

OK here's my attempt off the top of my head "W.O.W." = "Where Oh Were"
are the good features!?! "Where Oh Where" is the beef?

I know you can do better!

If you think about it the lack of impact on the more savvy or jade computer
users leaves open yet another opportunity for M$ to field yet another
version. A trim line fully functional WOW Free edition. One for the
function only oriented crowd. Or call it the .mil edition, because most
military equipment ain't pretty, but it does the job it was designed for.
"If you want pretty, the paint locker around back is stocked with camo paint
and brushes"

If it swims like a duck, and
If it quacks like a duck, and
If it walks like a duck,
It might be a duck

It has no purpose other than trying to look like a Mac O.S. and sucking
computer resources. I keep it turned off too.
