ATMs do not use Windows. The articles you
referenced are 100% phony!

You are the dumbest MVP I have ever seen.


-Michael

I think all the MVP's are cloned android like creatures with no eyes ears
and mouths.

They all seem to be stupid and all post the same incorrect things again and
again..

I wonder who built them and for what reason

While they claim not, I'm starting to suspect that MVPs get more than
the software Microsoft gives them for their "services'. Why else would
supposedly 'smart' users, which we're told is the reason Microsoft
picked them to be MVPs in the first place be so constantly uninformed
or flat out wrong in so many of their posts and also always be
unabashed Microsoft supporters and apologists? It doesn't add up.

The Windows Embedded family of products consisting of Windows Embedded CE,
Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded for Point of Service do not require
any product activation.

I do know some very good people, that were erased from the MVP list
because in my opinion they were too unconventional and versatile...

Microsoft wants people who may be somewhat good at what they do...

but if they have open minds, and are too smart.. they get the boot.

I can imagine that if an MVP does not like Vista for example and posts his
real opinion
on a blog.. and say it as it is, he will not be an MVP very long...


I never agreed with people who said MS is evil....

Im trying to not accept that... but its getting harder...

I think Googles motto is better "dont be evil" :-)

ABSOLUTELY WRONG!!

I used to install Windows NT 4.0 on NCR cash machines that were being
assembled in Watford, UK, in the year 1999.
