Postal striking Mutha ******s

Just thought I would vent my displeasure at the postal workers decision to strike on the same day my pre ordered copy of Win7 in meant to be delivered. Not only that, but they are also striking the next day too, then its the weekend and then they have to work through the backlog of all the un sent post. So I like to officially say ........ there is a seCret Undecipherable message hiddeN in this senTence for the postal workerS ....... :cool:

Boo hoo.

It's an OS for crying out loud. It's not life or death!

We're gonna have to put up with this for the next two weeks aren't we?

Thank you for your support and taking the time to reply. Unfortunately I don't think my post was really aimed at people like yourself, clearly from the tone of my message I am not being serious I especially don't remember suggesting it was life or death.
I am a little annoyed at the postal strike as I have been buying up parts ready for a new build to put my new OS on. Surely as you are reading these forums can you sympathise with a fellow PC builder who doesn't want to wait to get their shiney new parts up and running ?

I'm totally with you on this thebandit. My copy of vista is not well at all and cant be bothered to sort it all out with windows 7 out next week.

I knew they'd do it the same day windows is out. it just so happened that i'm off work that thrusday and friday so i though great i can spend those days sorting it all out again, but no poor old postmen are not happy. WooHoo!!!

I'm afraid I am going to close this thread since we have already had a number of threads regarding this and before long, the Windows & Other Software section will be taken over by these types of threads. Please use the following thread if you wish to talk about anything regarding this though:
