Quite frankly I think maybe, just maybe the guy either have experienced this
or what have you. Is it not true that AD can't be installed on FAT32?
Anyway, it's this elitist attitude that keeps a lot of people from
participating in forums such as this. Sure, it might be funny or intended as
such, but that's neither here nor there. It (IMO) basically said the guy is
full of sh!t. Maybe, maybe not, still I think it (the "pulled it out his
arse") was uncalled for especially since the guy was trying to help someone.
Instead of a smarta** comment, maybe a correction or clarification probably
would have done much better at educating others who may not know these
things.

No, I'm not a moderator, that's Jim's job, but I do have my opinion, for
ever what it's worth.
