Is that the latest Windows release in the jar?
Speaking of which, as I was getting ready this morning for my trip to Nashville (see pertinent thread), I remembered I had to sync my lap with my desktop so I could get some work done while on the trip. And as soon as I turned on my lap, the thing "froze" by showing the same screen for THREE HOURS before it became responsive again. I mean, the mouse pointer worked and also the task manager, but other than that, the stupid thing started working on an "update" without bothering to ask me first if I was ok with that. And on top of that, it didn't even bother to show me an "update being applied" message or anything.

Suffice it to say that I didn't hit the road until 45 minutes later than planned. Fortunately, the repercussions of that were not too grave... it took a while for Microsoft to reach this point with me, but it's finally succeeded in making me despise Windows. But I'm being forced to work with it, whether I like it or not...

So they arrested him on $850,000 bail when he didn't do anything and wasn't even there, but she gets arrested on just $10,000 bail when she discharged the shotgun, staged a crime scene, and lied to investigators.
Seems she Lackawanna tell the truth even after being busted for framing the guy. She faces up to 16 years in prison and a $30,000 fine.
