That must be a reference to the fact that the mean time between starting
MSO on Windows, and seeing the Blue Screen of Death is under sixty
seconds. (It was MSO 2K3 on WinXP machines that got me banned from
Kinko's, because every time I started MSO on those systems, the Blue
Screen of Death appeared. But that behaviour has consistently occurred
whenever I fire up MSO on a Windows system.)

Or maybe it is a reference to the fact that MSO 2013 is so completely,
utterly, and absolutely incompatible with MSO 2013, that the only
logical conclusion is that the two programs -- MSO 2013 & MSO 2013 ---
were designed by two different companies intent on producing software
that won't work with anything created by the other company. Ditto for
MSO 2010, MSO 2003, MSO XP, MSO2K, MSO97, and MSO95.
