That really sounds simple. The common computer user is not even going to understand a single one of those statements.

This discussion reminds me of a presentation someone from Microsoft gave on robotics and their research department.
Man from Microsoft:"You can see our the differnt curriculms that universities use on our website."
Man in audience:"What's the catch?"
Man from Microsoft:"No catch. It's free."
I also learned that Microsoft persuaded First in using something other than the system we use now. Obviously it had to be some type of embedded Microsoft system.
