Things That Piss Me Off

[jetpack_monkey]

Today at Border's I saw The Hitchhiker's Guide to SQL Server, an officially sanctioned Microsoft how-to book.

Given that Douglas Adams was a raving Mac enthusiast, I don't understand how they think that title computes, so to speak. Microsoft, don't talk to me about Microsoft. Here I am, brain the size of a planet, and people try to convince me that a Douglas Adams-related title applies to a Windows book. Oh, God, I'm so depressed.

It becomes ridiculous since the term has since become associated pretty heavily with Adams. In any case, I'm over it now, and I merely find it amusing.
