Isn't that what I said? Try XP HOME edition (a "lesser" version)...

The English disctionary is rewritten daily. Try to keep up.

Why look in a dictionary? Every one of them is obsolete. It takes 
years for them to catch up to general usage, and none of them ever 
catch up to local usage.

Not when used as I used it. Your ancient rules no longer apply.

Perhaps English, in England, is still stuck in the 18th century, why 
should anybody else limit themselves to that nonsense?

Actually, you are right. English was my second worst subject in 
school, outdone only by French. Languages never made any sense to me. 
Far too many stupid rules, that only Europeans could possibly dream 
up. Maths, and sciences was where I did well (or is that good?).
