Microsoft's festive advice: Don't plug our PCs into the Web
By Charles Arthur, Technology Editor

24 December 2003

...Then they should take responsibility for their user's losses.
Now you know why they are rather keen to have that condition that they're not responsible in any way for any losses in their EULA. As MS likes to think: caveat renter.
