There are some downright funny articles in the MS KB:

"a Person's hair turns grey if there are more than 500 users in a User Group." Dealing with that many id10ts would just about do it.

"Cookies are lost after upgrading to windows XP" Users report they tend to lose their cookies all over the floor right after they select "Format this drive using NTFS" on the wrong volume.

"Using the Invisible Network with Windows" ...So THAT'S why nothing ever shows up in Notwork Neighborhood.

and while were at it: Q228001: Network Adapter Does Not Work if Unplugged ...you don't say???

My Favorite: "Q276304: Error Message: Your Password Must Be at Least 18770 Characters and Cannot Repeat Any of Your Previous 30689 Passwords" Bwahahahahaha! Apparently this only occurs at MIT (or if your Administrator is a Bastard™)

And let's not forget Q209354 - How to RTFM

Only one hemisphere of the planet Mercury has a bitmap surface. The other hemisphere is a smooth gray surface. (http://web.archive.org/web/20030324154547/support.microsoft.com/?kbid=119809)

Their explanation: The planet textures used in Space Simulator are compiled from NASA photographs and reference material. The NASA data on Mercury is incomplete, covering only one hemisphere of the planet. One hemisphere was therefore intentionally left blank, reflecting this lack of data.

Well, how inconsiderate of them. They should have put THIS PLANET INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK or something...
