Nothing like staying upto date.

Is it really important to stay up to date about things you can't expect to change? It's the same in Vista as in NT 3.51. They didn't get a complaint -> no change.

Is all the quoting necessary? Really, your right below the person your quoting, who only has one sentence. This is quite irrelevant....Why am I writing this....More tea....

Tea doesn't contain c8h10n4o2 does it? It was a different substance, right?

c8h10n4o2 is caffeine. Therefore, tea contains it. Tea is my friend....

Coffee contains caffeine.. And I like waking up to a nice cup of coffee...

The phrase: "I wake up to a nice cup of tea.." just doesn't sound right to me..

Code: Select all

/* printf("Welcome to Windows 3.1"); */
/* printf("Welcome to Windows 3.11"); */
/* printf("Welcome to Windows 95"); */
/* printf("Welcome to Windows NT 3.0"); */
/* printf("Welcome to Windows 98"); */
/* printf("Welcome to Windows NT 4.0"); */
printf("Welcome to Windows 2000");

for keeping up to date...

Yup, that about covers the complexity of Microsoft's products..

No no, I hear Vista is much different:

Code: Select all

char *ver[] = {
        "3.1",
        "3.11",
        "95",
        "NT 3.0",
        "98",
        "NT 4.0",
        "2000",
        "XP",
        "Vista"
};

printf("Welcome to Windows %s", ver[8]);

printf("Welcome to Windows %s", ver[8]);

Now thats evolution!!

How mildly entertaining this is..

Microsoft would:

Code: Select all

char *ver[] = {
        "3.1",
        "3.11",
        "95",
        "NT 3.0",
        "98",
        "NT 4.0",
        "2000",
        "XP",
        "Vista"
};

printf("Welcome to Windows %s", &(ver + 8));

or some other horrible logic error...

Posted: **Wed Mar 07, 2007 12:19 am**

Code: Select all

char *ver_user[] = { 
        "3.1", 
        "3.11", 
        "95", 
        "98", 
        "Me"
}; 

char *ver_company[] = { 
        "NT 3.0", 
        "NT 4.0", 
        "2000", 
        "XP", 
        "Vista" 
};

printf("Welcome to Windows %s", (os==user) ? ver_user[ver] : ver_company[ver]);

Guess this is a little bit better
