RE: After Y2K, critical infrastructure

The point remains, WinNT can only comply with _any_ form of C2 _after_ the
lobotomy has been performed. Does it matter to what degree it has to be
lobotomized? A lobotomy, is a lobotomy. No "network connections", is "no
network connections", regardless of how one gets there.
