[An epic Bill Gates e-mail rant](<a href=“http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/archives/141821.asp?source=mypi ”>http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/archives/141821.asp?source=mypi</a> )
The first 5 times I used the site it timed out while trying to bring up the download page. Then after an 8 second delay I got it to come up.</p>
<p>This site is so slow it is unusable.</p>
<p>It wasn’t in the top 5 so I expanded the other 45.</p>
<p>These 45 names are totally confusing. These names make stuff like: C:\Documents and Settings\billg\My Documents\My Pictures seem clear.</p>
<p>They are not filtered by the system … and so many of the things are strange.</p>
<p>I tried scoping to Media stuff. Still no moviemaker. I typed in movie. Nothing. I typed in movie maker. Nothing.</p>
<p>So I gave up and sent mail to Amir saying - where is this Moviemaker download? Does it exist?</p>
<p>So they told me that using the download page to download something was not something they anticipated.</p>
<p>They told me to go to the main page search button and type movie maker (not moviemaker!).</p>
<p>I tried that. The site was pathetically slow but after 6 seconds of waiting up it came.</p>
<p>I thought for sure now I would see a button to just go do the download.</p>
<p>In fact it is more like a puzzle that you get to solve. It told me to go to Windows Update and do a bunch of incantations…

<p>That’s a cool email - at least he expresses himself clearly. It will be interesting to see how things go once he clears out of there - if he really can, and will.</p>
