Snapshot of the moment
Sep. 18th, 2008 10:32 pmI was originally going to post with a rant asking Why why WHY is it that textbook authors seem to have the writing skills of a bad high school student.
In my COMP601 textbook is the phrase: "In today's computer systems, software is an increasingly critical component." ARRRGH.
And I don't think I've chosen a bad Master's program - when looking at other schools, they all seemed to have textbooks with similarly poor writing.
But then, I typed "jbailey" into my FF3 address bar, and it decided I really wanted jbaileyinc.com which has the heading: "Welcome to J Bailey Company, the Microsoft RMS experts!"
Microsoft RMS could be the only software package out of Redmond less popular than Microsoft Bob.
