Dear Microsoft,
I am writing this letter in appreciation for your wisdom and insight in the development of your continuing lines of operating systems. I know you don’t always recieve credit when credit is due.
I want to say thank you. Due to the various problems that I experience supporting your product; locked up systems, disapering user accounts, programs and o/s features that mysteriously stop working and other insightful features, you have helped to increase my bottom line. Without you, I would not be as successful as I am today.
I recently purchased a copy of XP Upgrade for one of my systems. In the past month I’ve had to do a repair install 3 times. This has helped me to hone my skills and has given me confidence for when I will need to do this in the field.
You have increased my self esteem. When I walk in to a clients office and see his ashen face and glaring eyes because he can’t access data that his livelyhood depends on, it makes me feel like a god.
Thank you for Safe Mode. Without this marvelous feature, how would we ever find ghost drivers or access the system when all else fails. Other operating systems don’t have this feature. Arogant bastards!
You have even helped me on a personal level. After screaming, cursing fits that would blush a sailor and a couple of busted moitors, my wife was threatening to leave me. Now that I’m taking Prozac, everything is nice and even. The glass is half full. Because of you Microsoft, I realized I had a dark side. You helped to save my marrage.
You are a fiscal dynamo on the world stage. Without you many competitors would not even exist. Open Source to name one. Thanks to you these developers have work.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
P.S. $199.99 a copy for a desktop system seems a little steep. If you would lower that to say $25.00 – $50.00, you would sell more and give us techs even more work.
