| 750339 | 2009-02-22 19:53:00 | I wonder if they used Excel to (mis)calculate the payouts??? :D | johcar (6283) | ||
| 750340 | 2009-02-22 20:01:00 | Looking at the spacing and the blanked out bits, it seems very sizable overpayments. No wonder they're asking for it back. What's the odds it got sent to only two people? |

| 750346 | 2009-02-23 06:17:00 | They want a refund because the severance was wrong? Good. I have a point to raise about XP, and ME. Also 98, and 95. I was happy with 3.1.1, but the others are due for a bit of refund due to Microsoft's errors. Actually, it was only the software part of the OS's that gave trouble. Well, come to think back, the documentation, and - - - - |
