Error Reporting

One of the most annoying 'features of Windows XP. However, it does produce the orgasmic feeling of telling Microsoft that there has been yet another problem with thier "operating" system

Windows Error Reporting has encountered an error, would you like you send an error report?

GPS

Global Positioning System

Complex network of satellites that transmit signals to ground receviers in cars, boats, airplanes (see also VOR). The GPS receiver uses the signals from the satellites (which are over 15,000 miles away!) and uses them to find your location, anywhere in the world, with incredable accuracy.

Without GPS, countless losers who can't use a VOR would be lost"
