Yet another new version of Windows for Europe

Or, to be more specific, for Amsterdam. The Red Light District of Amsterdam. :)

Seen while waiting on my kids, who were shopping for souvenirs. It's called "Windows XXX."

Well, in Amsterdam the term Windos shopping has a whole new meaning...

@kadarzsolt: In Amsterdam the red light district is a real "family tourist" attraction - so nothing to be really ashamed off if you go through these streets with your kids. Probably better then to visit coffee shops with them.. ;-)

O/T, but somewhat related:

I like the pic of the Norse opera singer on the WinSupersite page.

Kinda looks like one of Madonna's outfits were she to put on about 400lbs.

Does it come with a pirated copy of Windows included in the price?

Paul, you should wear this shirt to your next Microsoft conference.  Better yet, you can wear it at your presentation in Europe.

Ya, but they were giving away CD's with copies of Opera with every purchase and had an Opera-branded charity donation box on the counter.

Yeah I remember that tour (Blond Ambition), it aired on HBO here in the States, that's why I thought it was funny. I hadn't thought about it that way.

Now I'm thinking the opera singer's cones look like hubcaps.
