Because I’m now a part time Windows user (but I mostly support Windows users), I find the Windows Secrets website and newsletter invaluable in staying current with some cool features and rare “gotchas” that populate the Windows world. And it’s nice to know that Brian Livingston (who happens to be the author of the book that gave me my first real introduction to Windows… after I’d been using it for a while already *heh*) still has his sense of humor after some hardware failures took the Windows Secrets website down for 48 hours this week:
If you’re a subscriber, you remain a subscriber. If your paid sub expires on Dec. 31, you’re darn tootin’ it still does. If you purchased a lifetime subscription … well, we can’t tell you the end of your lifetime, but we didn’t know that before the crash, anyway. [emphasis added]
Jolly joker.
