*panic* Oh no. If Cecil goes to microsoft and sees how great there product is he may quit developing KnoppMyth alltogether. Is this the begining of the end? *panic*

It reminds me of that movie Antitrust. Big software company hires genius programer, steals his stuff, kills his friends... WATCH OUT DEV TEAM.
:lol:

That's even more improbable than the bit about Microsoft changing their image.

So Cecil, was the signing bonus big enough to buy a place in the San Serriffe Islands?

The most annoying thing about April fools being posted on a forum like this is that it is April 2 in Australia when it happens, at which time my guard is down. I was a bit more prepared this year, but last year i had a slight panic attack :-)

I read it as the writer, since this would be another one of Cecil's Knoppmyth Tales. ;) (only on April 1st, that is)

I needed a name so, I made it up. However it is based on the writer. I thought Jeffrey would have been too obvious.
