Let us all feign our shock and amazement in unison. Imagine that MS will miss yet another delivery date.
A silly old song that may or may not fit the current situation...

Right said Fred, both of us together, one each end and steady as we go Tried to to shift it, couldn't even lift it, we was getting nowhere And so, we, had a cup of tea

Right said Fred, give a shout to Charlie, up comes Charlie from the floor below After straining, heaving and complaining, we was getting nowhere And so, we, had a cup of tea

Charlie had a think and he thought we ought, to take off all the handles And the things that hold the candles, but it did no good, well I never thought it would

Right said Fred, have to take the feet off, to get them feet off wouldn't take a mo Took it's feet off, even with the seat off, should got us somewhere but no So Fred said lets have another cup of tea and we said right-o

Right said Fred, have to take the door off, need more space to shift the so and so Had bad twinges taking off the hinges, and it got us nowhere And so, we, had a cup of tea

Right said Fred, have to take the wall down, that there wall is gonna have to go Took the wall down, even with it all down, we was getting nowhere And so, we, had a cup of tea

Charlie had a think and and he said look Fred, I've got a sort of feeling If we remove the ceiling, with a rope or two we can drop the blighter though

Right said Fred, climbing up a ladder, with his crowbar gave a mighty blow Was he in trouble, half a ton of rubble, landed on the top of his dome So Charlie and me had another cup of tea and then we went home

I'll said to Charlie we'll just have to leave it standing on the landing that's all You see the trouble with Fred is he's too hasty Now you never get nowhere if you're too hasty....

Sal: I think we should send some tea to Redmond. Hopefully they don't make a mess like they did in Boston...

Henke: There's no need to include RSA if it is closed source, is there?
