Reflections on life at “De Witte Wand”…

Duuuh!

There is a UK comedian called Jasper Carrott who, when faced with human idiocy, sums it up with a certain gesticulation whilst uttering the immortal word: Dickhead.
 
He came to mind today when I read a Microsoft Knowledgebase article reporting on an issue with Windows Home Server. The article contains the advice:
Make sure that you have a backup copy of any important program files before you store these files on a system that is running Windows Home Server.
Errm, doesn’t this blow a rather large hole in the raison d’etre of Windows Home Server? An environment that exists primarily for the purpose of making backup copies of important program files?
 
Talk about shooting oneself in the foot…
