The quote came originaly from a PC Magazine article. I found it in Andrew Schulman's Unauthorized Windows. Popping the first sentance into Google turned up some sites as well. Includinging this one http://128.253.200.17/eric/ms.qt.html which has some juicy quotes such as: "There are no significant bugs in our released software that any significant number of users want fixed. . . . If you really think there's a bug you should report a bug. Maybe you're not using it properly. Have you ever considered that?" -Bill Gates (quoted in an interview with the German magazine Focus) Dennis Kibbe ------------------------------------------------- Everyone should have http://www.freedom2surf.net/
