Microsoft MS-DOS Mobile; Those of iGuRu.gr's readers wandering today on the internet will discover a lot of hilarious news for the day. We for our part choose not to publish our own pranks, but the best of others.
One of those that impressed us is Microsoft's supposed "revolutionary" release. H company says:
