So I just found out yesterday that our MSDN access allows us to have copies of Visual Studio, Office, Etc for our home PCs despite being told before it didn't. Turns out our IS department is concerned about :filez: (despite the fact our license with MS specifically allows this) and has been hiding this fact from the entire development department. Our rep at MS is apparently going to be contacting them and telling them that 'its kind of going against the licensing' to be hiding this from us. Think about that...

I'm a little livid about this.

the numbers were sequential, my sister's was 5 digits. I joined in grade 9 so like 2000

e: oh i didn't know that, I accidentally joined twice and got one a few thousand later

Nope. Every 5 digit number was reserved. The first public number was 110001. There are a few hundred 5 digit numbers out there, mostly people who worked for Mirabilis and/or AOL. A guy I worked with at AOL has 31337.

apparently transaction submission is a three-way with AOL (as the current owner of CompuServe, who had been doing it for the CC companies since the mid-80s), Verizon, and Visa. :barf:

i actually press the start btn in windows toilet paper and then for a second im confused when the start screen doesn't show up

microsoft we trained everyone on the 8.1 start screen if u change it to this new "start menu" that would mean way too much training!
