The interesting thing here is that I get innumerable calls from 
telemarketers trying to
sell me "windows"...no, NOT the software, but the wood & glass devices which
fill various square holes in my dwelling! So, one CAN sell "windows"...as 
long as
it/they are NOT a computer operating system...?!

The alternative would be e-mailing a carpenter, with "Can you make me some
new storm windows (TM Reg'd by Microsoft!)?"
