For most people, the transition was from Me to XP, not 2000 to XP.


e: not people reading this thread, the general public

Public was probably more 98 to XP, I don't remember anyone having Me

Literally never heard of sidetone before. I'd probably be annoyed too if I had to keep explaining it to people though.

To be clear I wasn't asking about the technical definition of a workgroup, I was asking where they came up with the actual word

Like it exists nowhere else in the language to my knowledge

You should work in more terrible office jobs if you've never heard "workgroup" as a non-technical term.

Back when I was an Xbox support phone monkey I talked an eight year old Chinese immigrant to South Africa through port forwarding on his router simply because out of the entire family his English was the best.

I hope he enjoyed his console :unsmith:

Seems like they didn't alter the mail, they just put an official-sounding note in the "Seller note to customer" part of the form, unless I'm missing something? Like the mail is just a regular invoice, but they're allowed to add a note saying what the invoice is for, and they put the scam message in there
