Kindof surprised they didn't just outright buy it out. They used to be good 
for that way back when.

With our hero Billy gates divorced now, maybe we can persuade him to return to
MS and fix our broken Windows. They've become a bit drafty over the years.

I love the Rube Goldberg contraption that is DISM for managing the eternal
hell that is the WinSXS update repository. I imagine it was conceived by
someone who religiously rides their bicycle to work or has a standing-desk
that they must constantly brag about to all their coworkers.
