Too funny. :)

>Hi Steve. I agree. Talking of exiting applications here's a true story - no kidding:
>
>I recently came across a piece of software which when loaded has no apparent way to exit at all. No window title bar, no close button, no exit button, no control menu, nothing, nada, zip, nix, zero.
>
>I looked at this for a while and finally contacted their technical support to ask them how do I close their app. The answer ... are you sitting down? You load up task manager and kill the process!! This was by design!! Why you may ask, as indeed I did. Becuase they wanted to make sure "users did not accidentally close their app"! I betcha wont find that in the Microsoft GUI guidelines :) But I guess it sure sounded good to the managers :)
