I bet it's a virtual computer running in linux which itself is running in vmware under windows.
And ofcourse, that windows you have is running on a mac with bootcamp.

1. I was exagerating, but you do see the filesize being 14x bigger but the quality is still at 99.9% compared to the PNG.
2. It's easy to say you saw something, i still call bs on it xP

Pictures in this thread are screenshots, making image quality pointless, therefore they should really be posted in JPG for the sake of load times.
Of course, it doesn't make that much difference if you use PNG. If you have shitty internet, don't open threads about fullscreen shots of people's desktops.

Any screengrabs I post from now on will be low-quality JPGs copied back into paint and saved as BMPs.

I dunno it's definition. But I know that OEM's of apps are hold by your manufacturer (eg. sony, hp...)
For example, if you have an OEM version of Office 2007, you do not need it's serial. That how it works. (Since I have one)

MSN is terrible, I've been trying to get people to use Skype instead so I can phase MSN out, but too many people use MSN so it's an inconvenience on everyone and everyone that everyone talks to to use something else.

Basically MSN is like a virus that has spread so thick that it can't be stopped.
