Aside from the fact that I had to look up "anglophone," I agree. I couldn't tell if he was an idiot or just typing too fast. I subscribe to some detective/background check services, so I know where he lives by tracing back on his email, but I'm just too weak to turn him into MS. I should know better than to use that Gmail account for public stuff. I have another one that is more anonymous.

>>I thought I was being pretty cordial there ThisGuy, unlike your response. I know I wouldn't buy it from you now. But I'm surprised that you wouldn't take a pic and email it for $50. Seems like it would take you about 15 minutes. Got to ask though... Where did you get 50 copies of XP Pro? You don't have to answer that.
