That's just an over-developed sense of confidence. It's one thing for like-
minded individuals to meet up to celebrate the launch of a new OS Version (as
the O-S community does sometimes), but what would happen if you invited all
your friends round to celebrate this launch? I don't have so many friends that
I can get rid of them en-mass!!!
Quite entertaining.

ps. on the Advertising note, would MS please stop using children to advertise
their products. Personally, I find that REALLY offensive.
