Windows Vista copying 1 item for 25802 days 5 hours remaining?

Uncategorized

I was trying to copy a Expression Blend preview over to my thumbdrive and Windows Vista reports that it will take it 25802 days 5 hours. I still smile when I see the following screenshot:

Software is the only product that you actually purchase with the expection that there will be bugs. There are typically 2 types of software – buggy software and very buggy software. It almost seems excusable for companies to sell buggy products.

Oh yeah, it didn’t take 70 years of course. It took just a minute plus.

  1. if it’s really 70 years, i think the technology available then would have made it one second. =D
