  Why Microsoft should put user data in a separate volume
Time: 00:04 EST/05:04 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

When I attended Microsoft's Vista preview two weeks ago, Microsoft's Jim Allchin gave a talk and answered some questions to the press. During his talk, Mr. Allchin told us a story about some memories he shared with Steve Ballmer. The way the story goes, Steve Ballmer walked in to Jim's office one day and plopped a big desktop PC on his desk. Apparently, Ballmer had spent the entire weekend trying to clean spyware off of a friend's computer and couldn't so he put it in Allchin's hand. After tens of man-hours of engineering time, they finally managed to clean the PC to a workable state and sent it back to the owners.
