Window$ 2000 for UK defense systems.

Daft, I know, but not a lot to do with walking.

A friend walked off from his MoD job because he couldn't make them
believe that hosting highly secret information on web pages which were
to be hosted on Micros**t web servers, accessed by IE, and all the
usual Micros**t garbage, was a bad idea.

Of course we don't know the full story. It might be that the MoD has a
brilliant plan to appear to be so stupid as to use Micros**t machinery
attached to networks with public links, so that they can use these
systems to leak disinformation to our enemies and confuse them.

Not only our enemies, but also HM Government, judging by recent events.

Mmm yes - it's a comforting notion but somehow you just look at Hoon and you
know that's it's all horribly uncomplicated. They really are that gullible.
That dumb. Ain't it ghastly?

Yep. But he's not called Buff for nothing.

But so good at doing exactly what he's told, regardless of how
ridiculously oaf-in-charge it makes him look, that he clearly has a
splendid career ahead of him.
