So fucking what? It's not on the first page. In fact just because you were such a smarty pants I checked and that last post was 2 HOURS AGO and it was half way down page 2. Sorry I neither have the time nor desire to search every fricken page to see if a topic has been posted before. If a topic is not on page 1 then it's open to have thread started.

Does it matter that much what your OS is named? I mean unless it was something like Windows Herpes or Windows Hitler or something like that then I'd see why that would bother people.
