Oh grow up!

Realize that not all of your MS admins are from the last 6 months. Many of us are command line/keyboard junkies. Many of us cut our teeth on other systems - Novell in my shop.

You sound like the 5th graders I had to deal with when I took my son on his last field trip.

There are lazy or ignorant admins on all types of systems. Blanket statements only make you sound like you are incapable of independent analysis...

Again, please grow up and act professionally.
