Proof Microsoft just doesn't know how to handle LabVIEW

[Justin Reina]

Just thought this was too funny to let pass by.

On a serious note, how do you open LabVIEW in XP? Media Player won't work.

Most of my cow-orkers would think Microsoft Paint was a more appropriate application to open LabVIEW in. It's just a bunch of pictures, right??

I agree. All you do in LabVIEW is place squares and draw straight lines. MS Paint has been able to do that since Windows 1.0 in 1985.

Come on NI guys, step it up a notch.

One of my colleuges asked me where is the code :headbang: Although I showed him a working application, with lots of operations..

Don't feel too badly for them. These are the same guyze who, everytime I opened up LV7 and they saw the big "EXPRESS" title on the splashscreen, would say, "You know, if National Instruments would ever put out a *real* version of LabVIEW and not just an *express* version, maybe you could actually do something with it."

I was ecstatic to go to v8, if only for that reason.

I guess anything "express" is too fast for a cow
