http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=12667 By Adamson Rust over Rockall Friday 14 November 2003 SOFTWARE PANJANDRUM Microsoft has sent out a document called Secure and Dependable Computing to its customers which still contains internal comments from the Volish people who put the Word files together. In fact, a footer in one document even has the giveaway line Microsoft Confidential - Internal Use only. This has happened because the Vole forgot an elementary feature of its own Word processor and didn't bother to get rid of and switch off the comments before it sent them out. Not that the comments are that enlightening - Microsoft wisely decided to get rid of the phrase "built around customer IT scenarios". But there are gems in there. For example "Windows XP Professional is the most reliable Windows operating system yet - at least ten times more reliable than Windows 98 SE". Shame if you're still using the "insecure" Windows 98SE, eh? - ISN is currently hosted by Attrition.org To unsubscribe email majordomo@private with 'unsubscribe isn' in the BODY of the mail.
