I think that in your friend's HD C: was a primary partition and D: was an
extended partition, and in your HD there was a primary partition, so Windows

implemented by Bill. It's a little too easy to say that each stupid bug is
caused by Bill.

Yes, I agree, but please not with that Linux+Pascal hybrid notation! :-)
